Howdy,

That's a good idea. I think every document I've written has been a ``work in progress.'' :-)

Also, I find the autocompletion.plist to be confusing since it does not seem to show what keystroke gives what value.  Is there a complete list that shows all the paired keystrokes and results?

It says Opt-, (that's a comma). And the usual caveat that shortcuts could being different in non-English localizations applies.

Thanks for your comments. I really do want feedback about this document.

Good Luck,
