Windows
8 and Windows 8.1 can also accomplish the same feature. That has been true
for some time. Thanks.

Subject: [VICUG-L] what a cool thing this is, for windows users!
Hi all,
Well folks, Mac users have been able to do this for a long time now, but I
just learned that Windows users can do this same thing, as of today, in
Windows 7.
Let's say that you have more than one thing on the desktop that starts with
the letter T. I have 3 of them, and I wanted to get to thunderbird.
Until now, I had to press t 3 times, till it got to thunderbird. Not any
more!
If I type th
it will take me right to the Thunderbird icon.
So, try it folks, on your desktop, and in different menus as well.
This eliminates having to press a key more than 1 time, because you have an
icon whose first letter also works for other icons on the desktop, or, in
menus.
Harry
