I thought Easter eggs were weird things, not undocumented keystrokes. Seems I remember something in Microsoft Word's thesaurus that went something like "Bill Gates is dead" as one such example, way back in Word 6 or something.

It doesn't mean that something (apart from the key combination itself) is omitted from the manual as all the functionality that the key combinations access is documented. Dean.
