That's true, however, not all shortcut are accessible by a menu. As an
example to tab (move right a tab space) a piece of code, you have to do ctrl
+ shift + r or  ctrl + shift + l to left. Or to write a ifTrue: (forget
about the ugly of ifTrue haha) you can do ctrl + shift + t .... etc.. and
all of those things are useful to do with shortcuts but there aren't in any
menu.

cheers,
Mariano
