Regarding the shortcuts

Now that you are discussing this in another thread..I remember that in August I opened this ticket:  http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=1042

For those you have ever seen the list of shortcut, here they are (I am not sure 100% are working now).

Cheers,

Well then be sure they're not 100% working.  Also, we should get a way of having the
shortcuts less dependent on platform (ex. the prefix key to what we need to find a
way of referring to them in an homogeneous way like, say, Emacs).

In PBE book a change was done towards a unified terminology for the mouse buttons.  I
know still there are some issues with that, but let's move on!

being a long time smalltalk user, how does Emacs do it?

In Sophie we used I think shift, command, control to identify the
modifier keys and mapped them in the platform classes to the platform
specific bits.
We also had a key dispatcher class with instances configured for the
different views so that all the modifier etc handling was done in one place.

What are the issues?

Emacs coming from an old heritage and being multiplataform as well,
'standardized' the names Control and Meta, this last one normally maps
to Alt key in PCs but it is called Meta in Workstations.

There is no need to explicitly talk about Shift if you are only
working with alphanumeric shortcuts, if we decide to employ the ten to
twelve "function keys", then the Shift prefix has to come in play.

IIUC 'command' can be  the name we use for the command key in Macs and
Alt for PCs, we've only to create a  nomenclature, stick to it and use
it consitently in the program and documentation.

Certain operations which used to be available on the three button mice
now only work if you prefix the button with a Ctrl, and this behaviour
it is not consistent, so from times to times you've to do an heuristic
search of the menu you want to appear...
