That's what I needed.  I couldn't find the menu item because, silly me, I
was looking at things like "View" and "File" and the like....  :-)

However, now that I've gone and done this, I get a parse error instead
followed by an endless cycle of "something has gone wrong, do you want to
debug the environment" dialogues.  The only way out was to terminate FD and
fire it up again.

What did I do wrong?
