[Resending to the list. Why does this list (and no others I've seen) not include a "ReplyTo: www-amaya@w3.org" tag on it? I request the administrators to arrange for this. Otherwise the conversation becomes unintentionally one-on-one and I have to manually write a cc to the list address.] Scott Davis wrote: > Emacs menus represent it as C-h C-p, as it is a different key sequence > than C-h p.

H is the same as Shift+h. I disagree to this! Hotkeys never are case sensitive. They are just keys. They are not characters. Control+Enter is a valid hotkey (in some program). Is it small case or capital case? There is no meaning in applying the small capital distinction to hotkeys. Ctrl + Shift + H simply means "Press Ctrl, and not releasing it press Shift and not releasing it press the square bit of plastic labeled H." Is your keyboard labeled in capitals or small letters? You say Shift + h is the same as H. You forget we are talking about *keys* here, and by "keys" I mean bits of plastic in front of you. "Keys" doesn't mean *characters*. And with characters, there is nothing called "Shift", using which you might say "Shift + h = H". The LHS of this equation is the summation of two disparate quantities and is hence cannot be evaluated. What is 5 joules plus 2 seconds? -- STAY CCE +2005-05-13 +0530 http://samvit.org/calendar
