Most of the keys on your keyboard are available to GeoShell's hotkey sytem. And while most keys are easy to understand, others need a little more explaination. Hopefully this list of available keys (and how to enter their names) will help you understand both the simplicity and complexity of one of GeoShell's most useful features.
