Keyboard ShortCuts reference:

=============================

(see also the HTML online documentation, or the Launcher's "Settings-Keyboard" dialog).

Attention: Recent Changes:

F2      Was changed from CodeCompletion to Rename (for win32 compatibility);

	If you don't like that, see & edit the "keyboard.rc" file.

	CTRL-SPACE still works for completion.

ALT-SPACE sniplet insertion has been added (try typing <t><s><ALT-SPACE>)

Notice1:

    for most systems: the CMD-key is mapped to the left ALT-key.

Notice2:

    case matters; CMD-a is different from CMD-A  (CMD-Shift-a)

    case matters; Ctrl-a is different from Ctrl-A  (Ctrl-Shift-a)

Notice3:

    the settings are defined during startup, by reading the

    file: "keyboard.rc" - if you don't like the settings, change them !

Special (national) Characters:

=============================

There is a virtual keyboard found on the popUpMenu, under "others"-"others"-"special keys".

Keep this view open, beside your editor and click on a character to insert it.

Unix only:

==========

The right CTRL-key is used as a Compose key

(this can be changed in the "keyboard.rc" file).

Composed national characters are entered as a 3-character sequence:

    COMPOSE key1 key2

press them in sequence - not at the same.

For example, the french e-accentGrave is entered as:

    COMPOSE e `

and the german ä (umlaut-a) is entered as:

    COMPOSE a "

A full list is found in the Method "WindowSensor initializeComposeKeyTable".

Alternatively, special characters can be copy/pasted from the following list:

(Notice: you can also use a font-display via the text-editors

    'more'-'tools'-'specialCharacters'

 menu to insert any special character)

    acute:

	Á É Í Ó Ú Ý     á é í ó ú ý    [ Compose <char> ' ]

    grave:

	À È Ì Ò Ù       à è ì ò ù      [ Compose <char> ` ]

    circumflex:

	Â Ê Î Ô Û       â ê î ô û      [ Compose <char> ^ ]

    tilde:

	Ã Õ Ñ           ã õ ñ          [ Compose <char> ~ ]

    slash:

	Ø ø                            [ Compose <char> / ]

	Å å                            [ Compose <char> * ]
