The Option key also works with the "Digestion..." menu choice. When the list
of enzymes comes up (its a separate window) you can select as many enzymes as
you want to cut with by holding the shift key down. To deselect all, click on
the space at the upper left of the listing. You can also combine particular
cutters with double, triple cutters etc with a button selection in the dialog
box.
Once you've chosen a selection of REs and displayed the map or digest, any
subsequent maps/digests of other sequences will also use the same selection
unless you reselect the REs or quit/restart the application.
All this is in the manual.
