I love and miss WP. Reveal codes was nice. The function keys were nice too. It was back in the day, where people went to a typing class before they dared trying to earn money at a keyboard. So, putting out a template where each one of the 10 function keys had 4 different actions depending upon which shift-alt-ctrl key you were holding down. Well that's just natural and obvious.
