What this function would do is as simple as this pseudo-algorithm: 1. goto/jump a topic either user-typed or driven by a key-combo (sort of accel) 2. show it (and hide all others) 3. narrow to it (as if we had zoomed into) I would find this pretty convenient. Currently, there is nothing AFAIK. What do you think ? Xavier
