Hi Guys,
Personally I think this one goes in the "special request"-category,
meaning it's something a few of us would think was really really cool
'n' useful 'n' stuff, but the overwhelming majority would never even
use or notice it or they'd only be confused by it. I've submitted a
couple of those requests myself, and although a particular function
you've thought up may not have a specified shortcut or dedicated
AUX-event there's almost nothing that can't be done using a
combination of SET-, MASK- and REDIRECT AUX-events. And if, like me,
you regularly run out of AUXes, Colin was kind enough to add the PUSH-
and other intertrack-events.
Also, I find a nice side-effect of this way of working is that there
can be so many points where things can turn out completely different
from what you were aiming for...

grtz, Chiel
