Use Delete to move back a page in Safari
Authored by: johnq on Jan 21, '04 02:37:39PM

Shucks....of course, I was wrong.

Hm, BUT, that would be cool though...a back/forward toggle in one key... :)

Like how the current Exposé keys work:

Full, quick Key stab minimizes/hides
Full, quick Key stab again unminimzies/unhides
But not as widely known/tried/used:
Keypress-and-HOLD minimizes/hides
Key RELEASE unminimzies/unhides
...one Keypress does two actions. It's subtle but powerful.

So, in my SHEER FANTASY/idea:

// not real, don't bother trying:
Press-and-hold-CMD-left-arrow: Peek At Previous Page
Release: Show "current" page, prior to peeking back.
--
Press-and-hold-CMD-right-arrow: Peeks at "Forward" Page.
Release: Show "current" page you were just at.
// end of fakeness

So it's basically PEEK Back/Forward instead of Back/Forward.

I hope I explained it well enough.
