Dragan, you sound very convincing all right... when I get a minute I'll upgrade.

Parameters for methods are also listed, so you don't have to look them up. You can define keyboard shortcuts, few are already available (mc for modify command, mf for modify file) and you also get a MRU list so you don't need to know the exact name of the file. Plus, you can add your own (I've added db for 'do (_browser) with "').
