It reminds me that there may not be, in fact, any "standard" bindings for F-keys. This article deals with keyboard shortcuts generally: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keyboard_shortcut I had never heard the term "sacred binding". In particular, the sacred bindings for Ctrl-B, Ctrl-I and Ctrl-U are to commands that create bold, italics and underlined text, respectively. There is a plugin that creates these bindings, but it is not enabled by default. This article deals with F-keys specifically: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_key Only F1 (Help) appears to be in general use. Leo does bind F1 to Help by default. In short, it does not appear useful to create additional default binding for F-keys. Edward P.S. Here are the key labels on a Microsoft ergonomic keyboard: F1: Help F2: Undo F3: Redo F4: New F5: Open F6: Close F7: Reply (will not be bound in Leo) F8: Fwd (Ditto) F9: Send (Ditto) F10: Spell F11: Save F12: Print (will not be found in Leo, probably) EKR -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group.
