OK... next problem...

I think I have the new version system sorted out now, but because
of the changed directory layout some things that I brought over to
the previous setup no longer work.  In particular I had to make
some minor source tweaks to the good old Tracker add-on 'TermHire'
-- which is another ancient staple I can't do without (though I call
it OpenTerm).  [Everyone *does* know about TermHire, don't they? (:-)]

Unfortunately, it sort of depends on a keyboard shortcut, which used
to be 'Alt-Ctl-something', but now apparently should be just 'Alt-something'.
The unfortunate bit is that shortcuts now don't seem to work at all!
I can bring up the File->Add-Ons menu and start it from there just fine,
but the advertised 'Alt-something' doesn't do a thing!  The same is true
for all the other shortcuts -- except "FileTypes-F"... which tends to
bring up the "Find" app with the same shortcut (:-/)

Can't see any docs on anything that might have changed so I assume
a bug.

[And personally, I'd really love it if 'T' wasn't "Open Target Folder"
by default, as I've always used that for OpenTerm -- and that's a *lot*
more useful to me than following a link!]
