Menu Key Accelerators

I am using 2.9 and the good old script editor on Leopard 10.5.5

Copy-paste seems to work all the time which was not true of 2.7.2

however, there is consistently a mode that occurs throughout the day where
the cmd-S for Save will not work unless I activate the stack window first.
Also intermittent is the unhilighted 'Apply' button after editing code.
Fix: I simply add a space at the end of a script line and it becomes active
again.

I would expect these would have been fixed in 3.0+ so my post is more of a
curiosity.

My workaround used to be Menu Key where I setup control-C and control-V as
alternatives to using cmd-C and V when using the script editor.

This info might be helpful to someone out there.
