Question 2. Can I do 2 quadrants horizontally ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | $ | $ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Then C+A+F# and so on... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | $ | $ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- [ASCI art is so much fun!] :-) I'm not opposed to the following but I guess (for me) the horizontal is visually more pleasing. I guess it's just a question of personal display "real estate" use -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | $ | | | | | | | | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | $ | | | | | | | | | | | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- All that and I still need to get my mouse going....
