Instead of trying to guess what the name of a two-key shortcut might be use the pop up dialog I described in the previous email. With that dialog visible if you press a two-key shortcut (e.g. Shift-a followed by Shift-a assuming the caps lock is off) then it will tell you the name of the shortcut written in blue, in this case it says Keypresses A,A invoke command Insert A where the A, A is written in blue. That is the name of the two key shortcut Shift-a followed by Shift-a. I think you may be confusing the fact that Shift-a involves two physical keys on the keyboard (one of which you hold down while you press the other) with a two-key shortcut, which is a sequence of two key presses one after the other, such as Ctrl-A followed by Alt-B, which would be a two key shortcut, even though you have to physically touch four keys to make it happen... > Also I want to make sure that my shortcuts replace the default > ones. they will.
