Commands

<TAB-CTRL-N> renames the selected object
<SHIFT-ESC> interrupts the drawing process; it leaves the screen in unfinished state; 
works for Black and white display only; WHY??? chipndale uses the same code for both display types!!! Temporary solution for 
colordisplay: use a button "CD-stop"; This button works only if there is no command ahead. 
drawing of design if in a pushed cell:  
viewer may optionally ommit drawing the outside cell objects; option by using the viewer popup menu
simplification treshold of viwers can be modified by using the viewer popup menu
<CTRL-[> show properties of selected object
<CTRL-SHIFT-[> change property of selected object
 
Implementation

2 bugs corrected (CDCellsImpl, CDPropertiesImpl)
2 bugs avoided (for popup menu)
IO.Flush of viewer streams gets some help with Process.Pause
Use of tiptable and InputFocus.CaptureButtons replaced by use of Terminal.GetKeys
