Keyboard

The table below summarizes the keystrokes available in PFC for commands related to Editor pane. An ellipsis (…) appearing at the end of the command indicates that a dialog will appear when the command is used. All commands are contextual. They are enabled or disabled as appropriate to the current context (for instance, whether text is currently selected in the editor). Note that these key commands are listed on the right side of the Edit menu when the associated command appears there.

The keyboard is also used in some selection operations. These are described in their own topic.
