KeyDownBrowser.palette (v1.0)

KeyDownBrowser.palette is a 3.0  InterfaceBuilder View palette for the NXBrowser subclass KeyDownBrowser. KeyDownBrowser extends NXBrowser to provide Workspace Manager-like response to keyboard entry. Arrow keys may be used for manuevering.  Other keystrokes are interpreted as search criteria within the appropriate column. Selection within the browser by arrow keys or by keystroke matching is equivalent to a single mouse click and sends the action to the target. Pressing the Return key is equivalent to a double-click and sends the double action to the target.  KeyDownBrowser overrides NXBrowser's default arrow key behavior, instead providing the more intuitive behavior found in the Workspace Manager browser.  Rules for keystroke search were modeled after WM as well. (see Notes... below).
