Subject:      Re: UNIX Pull-Down Menus

don't know that, but I think the best way is the UNIX documentation. That
is not only a SAS thing, also other windows might have key-shortcuts. Did
you try others, like CTRL, shift, ...? Maybe some of your UNIX stuff could
help? I don't know, if that is different with the UNIX derivates, but I
don't think so.
