Default LimeWire HI problems

Some obvious problems with LimeWire for OS X:

•*No Edit menu for items like Copy and Find

•*Scroll keys are supposed to scroll, not move the selection

•*Aliases can't be used in the shared folder

•*Some columns widths should be static. This makes adjusting column widths a pain

Here's another annoying bug that I noticed in the first 5 minutes of use...

Try clicking the "Library" tab and then click another tab (Search, Monitor, or Connections). Notice under the File Menu the items disappear! Completely GONE! Although I like the fact they listened and put the menu back where it belongs (up on the menu bar and not attached to windows, ala Windoze), it still needs to work correctly.

IMHO, simple beta testing would make this a much better app... Look for a program called "Aquisition" for OSX. Check it out here

It's a cocoa app with less bells and whistles than Limewire, but... Much faster and more elegant on the UI side of things - free too. Look out Limewire, competition is right around the corner! Get your act together!

The file menu options disappear because they're supposed to. This has been the case with every version of LimeWire for over a year. This is because those File menu options are really only relevant in the library -- they would be confusing to use in the other tabs.

On the earlier suggestions, we'll keep them in mind. Just a quick question -- what would you want to use "Find" for in LimeWire?
