If you are able to look at all of the shortcuts used by Sound Forge, Gold Wave, and even Adobe Audition, and thorw in Audacity, you will see that these programs have so many that conflict that it is hard to make any kind of recommendation. For example, sound Forge uses I for Mark In and o for Mark Out. The arrow keys work somewhat differently. Copying any program's keyboard shortcuts completely might also raise issues with those programs. Each of these programs have some shortcuts that are probably not even that important. To me, the actual shortcut chosen is less important than being able to assign a shortcut. Without knowing the scope of his program, it is hard to make suggestions. As many shortcuts as Sound Forge have, there are places where more are needed in some of their plug-ins.
