Hotkeys
This is an overview of all hotkey combinations that can be used to
trigger commands more efficiently. Two-letter combinations can only be
entered if the command line has no keyboard focus, otherwise enter must be
pressed after entering them. Two-letter combinations must be entered within a
period of maximal 2 seconds. If you mistyped a two-letter combination,
please press Escape or wait two seconds and start again.
Some commands have more than one key combination. That's mostly for
compatibility with other programs.
In addition to the hotkey combinations listed below, the standard
way of handling keys is used in dialogs. Under Windows and Unix operating
systems, you can use Alt-Key combinations to press buttons (e.g. Alt-O for
OK). If you're using Mac OS X this might be Option-O or Alt-O depending on
your keyboard.
