This "wish list" is a compilation of TeXShop features being suggested/ 
requested on this list.

By the way, suggesting a TeXShop feature on this list is absolutely  
not an alternative to making a request at  http://sourceforge.net/ 
tracker/?group_id=155796&atid=797241 . (This thread started as a way  
to gauge the importance accorded to wishes suggested/requested on  
this list but, while "voting" didn't seem to generate much interest,  
"keeping track" seems to have.)
