Whilst I'm more than happy to contribute to the manual, I think this should be changed in the app settings too. The labels on the menu items are where I'd look to see which shortcuts to use, and out of the box they say Ctrl-Shift-C, etc. I didn't know about those alternate shortcuts, and don't think I would have gone looking on the manual for them (but dead useful, thanks!). But yes, happy to put a niggle list together and see what we can do about them. What's a good place for sharing such a doc online? I'd normally use GDocs, but after google shafted my production service the other week by mistakenly flagging it on its spam databases I'm loathe to touch anything of theirs again. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
