  hum, editing filenames isn't very 'RiscOS-like' and could incurr the wrath
of Apple ltd.
  A move option on the menu is reasonable but it isn't THAT hard to hold down
SHIFT is it?
  Space conversion would be nice, I agree but what would the filer do on
reading the filename back...does it leave the hard spaces in or does it 
convert them back to soft ones. I get the impression that this could confuse
some apps (and possibly some users) if they specify the fie in one way and it
ends up with a slightly different name. Having said that, I can't think of
any specific examples..
