Ok Jim. That indeed sounds helpful then.
BTW, have you per chance set up a custom script just to run the
SayString (GetActiveCursorName ())
deal, to see what it returns at this point? I.e. whether your situation 
also,  is stuck in what it believes to be some kind of, FSDom Edit cursor, 
type situation? as mine is here?

I haven't yet gone to the testing of actually hitting Alt+Delete, in my 
situation, to check what that returns manually, or further, to establish 
whether that's the function which that builtin shortcut key runs anyway.
And I can't readily test it with the tools I have here, which is part of my 
problem in resolution.
