Yes, thanks to both you and Nicolas and sorry for the time it took me to
give feedback.

I find that the gain with long URLs is substantial.

So far I am not super used to long keypresss, so I do not really know
how long I should keep the keys pressed to make sure I get a long rather
than short keypress. I assume I could get some audio feedback to
distinguish short from long keypresses buty my sound card is broken at
the moment.

I seem to remember you Dave do not find double presses very appropriate,
but I think as far as I am ocncerned, I would prefer having to press the
key combination twice rather than having to keep it pressed.

I also did think about another possibility: displaying a menu to select
the feature one wants.

Seb.
