   I would just like a set defined for CERTAIN things:

 Editors - Open, Close, Move To Line, Move To Word, Query Word (Left|Right)
           of Cursor, Cut, Paste, Copy, Search and Replace.
 
 Paint Progs - Point, Line, Arc, Circle, FloodFill etc..

   A VERY good place to design a set of standards might be with server SW for
Arc/EtherNet, FDDI, ParNet, SerNet :-) and even BETTER idea might be a standard
request/recieve for SQL frames/keys.

   Heck ... I'd take a way to QUERY an app of all its functions it DOES under-
stand... I guess we will have to wait to see what flows from David Junod's
keyboard.
