Well, I've started work on it. Find it here:  
http://www.rosegardenmusic.com/wiki/keyboard_shortcuts
I added a link to it on the main wiki page.

I would encourage people to add to the list whenever you find the time. If  
there is a more practical way to make such a list than the way I have now  
done it, of course feel free to do this.

The "Note" column can also be used to indicate when a keyboard shortcut is  
wrongly listed in the program (e.g. Playback, listed as "return" while  
actually being "ctrl+return"). Is there a bug-reporting page anywhere to  
report these kinds of things, by the way? I haven't been able to find one  
at first glance. Could be more prominent on the homepage, if there is one.


On a separate note:  is there any way to insert a bar (aka measure)  
easily, without having to fool around with splitting a segment, dragging  
it, then creating a new one and joining the resulting segments together?  
And is there a keyboard shortcut for this? This embarrassed me in front of  
my friends recently, who now see me as the stubborn dude refusing to use a  
normal operating system with normal programs like Finale :P

And is there a keyboard shortcut for Step Recording? A large part of the  
composition I have been working on was written using this, and having to  
click a toolbar button everytime using a netbook keyboard quickly gets  
awkward...

I understand the reasons for the lacking documentation, by the way, and I  
very much appreciate your work on this program. If it is any consolation,  
I have been using the program's notation editor intensively the last few  
months, and churned out a piece for piano, harp, cello and two singers  
which I will be performing this Thursday. Apart from some bars with too  
many beats in a bar confusing Lilypond once in a while, it has been  
relatively painless :) So thanks! I will attempt to help out on the  
documentation wherever I can.


Best,

~Bas.
