Hello users of the translated German gretl interface,
in case you didn't know, I'm the German translator. I have just updated
the keyboard shortcuts for many menu items. (We're talking about the
underscore you see under a letter of a menu entry. Pressing Alt+[the
underscored letter] activates the menu item.) Of course, this does *not*
affect the released version 1.8.0, but all snapshots and releases from
now on.
Quite a few keyboard shortcuts were added, but some have also been
rearranged and changed in order to avoid ambiguities and multiple key
assignments. That means that maybe some of your favorite keyboard
shortcuts won't work anymore and you have to get used to new ones. I
hope the re-learning costs are not too high and that the benefit of more
keyboard shortcuts outweighs the adjustment cost both in the long and
the short runs.
Actually, it could be that some more changes will be applied before
version 1.8.1 is released. But that of course would only matter for
users of the interim snapshots or cvs delevopment versions.
thanks,
sven
