Hi Al,

My intention was not to doubt that you could do all that:
I just asked you if you believed that so many arguments 
were going to fill all those tabs..

As to the menus, if you accept the idea to let !menus drive the
tab selection, why not to associate a popup menu to each one
for the Edit> paste/copy/cut/etc. (Ctrl-click or Right-click), 
leaving the menu items for captions only?
