Re: XPL shortcuts etc. [long]

Re NI, it would be good to have a little more theoretical analysis if
someone is in the mood. I have been struck (using DOS 6.2 for XY and
WFW 3.11 for XW) how few of the NI's in the standard keyboard are
necessary. In general they don't seem to be necessary when not
followed by a command rather than ASCII characters. On the other hand,
I have found in customizing the keyboard that they are sometimes
necessary, often in an odd place in the sequence, to make something work.
