Shortcuts index

This is an index of all shortcuts and their corresponding description in the handbook. The shortcuts are sorted (roughly) alphabetical. If you want to directly find out which shortcuts a certain menu item has, you can either look at the entry itself in BibleTime (as it always shows the shortcut), or you can look it in the Main Menu reference.
