>>>>Separately, I don't share your dismay at references to the keyboard key as "forward slash." There are in fact two slash keys on a keyboard, one that leans forward and one that leans backward. What's the problem with making it crystal clear which one is meant? Up to a point, there is no reason not to be as clear as possible.

Not to be pedantic or anything <g> but that isn't what I said. Or maybe I said it poorly. If the top of the slash is to the right of the bottom, it's a forward slash. If the top is to the left of the bottom, it's a backward slash. Better?
