Alt-w is advertised to copy the selected text.
It doesn't.   It pops up the 'window' menu.
However, even if you are in the 'edit' menu,
alt-w apparently does nothing.

I can select text, do alt-E alt-W, move the pointer,
then do ctrl-Y, and nothing pops up.


By the way, 'ctl-U ctl-U ctl-S' is an absurdly long
sequence for something as common as searching for text.
