Hi. I recently filed a bug for the fact that the default key binding (at least in the Linux version) for Edit -> Repeat is the Redo key, a key which does not exist on most keyboards:

<http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=41638>

The issue was closed as invalid by a developer, saying that the key exists on Sun keyboards and that the setting can be changed by the user.

I think the reasoning is flawed, because the vast majority of keybaords don't have a Redo key and the default settings should work for the majority of users, not a very small minority. The majority of users should not have to go through the extra step of reconfiguring a feature to make it work.

I filed the bug on the basis of the Linux behavior. I would like to know if the Windows version of 1.9 also uses the binding Redo for the Edit -> Repeat function. If so, this would make my case stronger for reopening the bug.

Thanks to anyone who can check this. I would do this myself, but i don't have access to a Windows computer on which i can install software for testing.

Thanks,

Leston
