[Tlf-devel] Keys Re: WAEDC QTC - v0.002 release :)

My proposal would be to have a ALT combination for change mode to speed 
up logging. To type :cwm and :ssb back and forth can be annoying.
I dont care about exact scoring, there are other tools ;-) But the 
programm should give a idea if you are short of mults, but that works 
for me.
