Seems that you've got yourself organized well. But under windows I too
select
files and hit enter. Or click it with the right mouse key, and choose from
print, mail-to, compile/make, copy, zip, or whatever is a valid option for
that
particular type of file under my mouse pointer. Win3.1 never attracted me.
Much too much trouble with that. But a lot has improved since then.
