On a side note, Ctrl- Home is the only short-cut to move to the beginning of all text, even it may interrupt your work to key in for small-keyboard mobile devices.
EMACS THEME SOFTWARE
Calling for bug-fix in each individual software can only be done with a meta-project like GNOME, but knowing GNOME itself produced some of these problems (removal of Edit Menu in 'nautilus' is a GNOME 3 decision) really didn't leave you much hope. Even the right-click menu doesn't have a fixed shortcut for "Select-All" - it is usually a but can be t from application to application. This inconsistence beats the purpose of the Alt-activated menu bar, and not any operating system, not even Windows, is as inconsitant. Selecting "Select-all" from "Edit" menu is a bad idea, because it maps to Alt- e - a in firefox,Īlt- e - t in gedit, Alt- e - s in OpenOffice (even with gnome-integration), in each software a different key, and in some software, there is no "Select-all" in Edit Menu, like chromium, and in some software, there is not even Edit Menu itself, not even a hidden one to be called out with Alt- e, like nautilus. If, for the good reason of editing efficiency or limitations of mobile device's keyboards, Home and End are out of reach, then you will have to get by. If you need to select everything in a GtkTextView, the multi-line editor-like control, you are left to do the onerous Ctrl- Home followed by Ctrl+ Shift- End, which, with my 63-key keyboard is almost impossible. This, however only works with GtkEntry, that is, one-line input field. You can go to the end of the text with Ctrl- e and remove a line Ctrl- u. There isn't a single shortcut to do so directly.
