Hello Jannik & others on TBUDL following this thread,
Sunday, December 31, 2000, you stated regarding using TB! commands
(shortcuts) w/ keyboards other than English:
JL> I seem to be unable to open/close all threads in a folder with the
JL> "Ctrl + *"-shortcut. The reason for this could be that I am using TB
JL> with danish keyboards.
That is correct.
JL> ... And so, my questions are:
JL> 1. Does "Ctrl + *" actually mean: "Ctrl+Shift+8" (on an English
JL> Keyboard)?
JL> 2. Should I go for the keys or the characters corresponding to the
JL> english keyboard?
JL> I have tried the following options "Ctrl+Shift+8" (going for the keys)
JL> and "Ctrl+Shift+'" (going for the characters) but nothing works.
Those of us using keyboards other than English have two options:
Check to see if info regarding shortcut configurations for a given
other than English keyboard has been posted to Marck's site;
http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/shortcut.eng.txt
and
Finding them yourself (methodically, trying one likely combination
after another - above all using the keys that ARE DIFFERENT on
your keyboard) and sending the info about what works and what
doesn't to Marck so he can post it there in order to benefit other
TB! users also using Danish Keyboards.
I myself use a Latin American Spanish Keyboard, Se�or Lindquist -
(that was to show you my � key), and my experience is that not all
shortcuts work for me (or I haven't found all of them yet).
Thinking about it, since all menus can be activated using the
keyboard, why not develop a "hot-key combo" for any command you
choose to implement (instead of memorizing the keyboard sequence for
going through the menus, or using the mouse)?
DH
