Thanks Shauna. That's probably what I'll do. But I'd sure like to know if
there's a simple way to determine what keypress launched a given macro,
analogous to the ActionControl.
If anybody knows, please chime in. Shauna has given me a perfectly good
solution to my immediate problem, but I'm still curious.
