[RWP] Applications key no longer triggers context menu

I can't remember all of the options but Shift Applications brought up the
options to set Send and Receives, Alt Applications brought up a context menu
for adding FX and I can't recall Ctrl Applications right now but I'll
probably end up reaching for it at some point. Muscle memory is awesome! 

There doesn't seem to be any problem with the applications key when an item
is selected. Meaning no need for the ctrl up arrow. When I do the ctrl up I
hear the name of my audio interface announced.

Please tell me what the other menus with shift/control are for, and what
screen they begin with?
Like the recording options menu displays Monitor Input when you arrow down
once.
I sometimes get other menus from the applications key, like one that says J
Jump to marker something.

I know for sure there's a setting that could be a permanent fix, because
once I spent hours and accidentally ran across it, but later couldn't
discover what setting did it.
I'd also like to know why sometimes I get the standard file, edit, view,
etcetera menus when I press alt, and sometimes not.
With that too, usually when I bring up those menus with a press of F10, then
alt continues to bring them up during that session, though not 100 percent
consistently.
Those are just slightly annoying bugs, and not show stoppers for me, as long
as we can discover workArounds.
David Shortland's discovery of a second midi editor that's much more
complete than the original midi editor; when something broke the original
editor's ReaAccess shortcut; turned out to be a blessing in disguise.
Thanks,
Indi
