No, [Q]uit and [W]indow make some kind of sense, and I'm not affected by their short interdistance on QWERTY keyboards. I still don't quite like [Z]undo, [X]ut, [C]opy and [V]aste. Only the C makes sense. Yes, they're chosen because of their key positions. This is the greatest thing wrong with them. Cut something, and when pasting hit C instead of V. Gone is your cut text. > Or, for that matter, the people who write software that doesn't make any > effort to handle destructive-yet-easily accidental keystrokes like that ? Yes!
