I'm not seeing a commandKeyDown handler in any of the IDE's frontscripts.

You can increase the delay and see whether that helps by doing this:

1. In the message box, type
      edit script of menu "View"

2. In the script, look for the line
     case "Go Prev"
(It's about a fifth of the way down.) The next line contains an 
expression that ends in "< 20". Replace the 20 with a larger number 
(try 50).

3. The next case is "Go Next". The line after this contains a similar 
expression; replace the number 20 with a larger number, as above.

4. Click Apply, then close the script.

5. In the message box, type
       save stack "revmenubar.rev"

(Of course, it's a good idea to copy your Rev folder and work on a 
copy, in case something goes wrong - it will save you from having to 
re-download if that happens.)
