Description: '
It often seems I can''t do more than one Tedit thing at a time.  For example, if I''m doing a Put in an AR editor, I can''t type to other random text windows, such as a Lafite message composer.  Can''t do a Put in one AR editor and a Get in another.  This is quite annoying, as there is no obvious reason these operations should be mutually exclusive.
