Hi, As far as I know there is no shortcut key to answer calls, nor can you create one cause there doesn't seem to be a "answer" option in the Skype menus. You could however create one for hanging up in System preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard shortcuts.
I think you can only type the first letter of a person's name in the contact list. When you're in a chat window you can look for main frame, interact with that, than interact with chat frame. Pretty straight forward once you're used to it. I wouldn't know why your contacts show up multiple times - never seen anything like that. I suppose you mean this happens in the Skype contact list? Good luck.
