All the ones that are not trivial to find out are listed on the site.

Since there are now much more card types than in 1.x, I don't think it's a
good option to have a specific key binding for each of them.

I'll see if I can coax Qt to change this behaviour. In the meanwhile, feel
free to add this to the feature requests, so that more people can vote on
this.

It would not be consistent, since unlearned cards now always have the grade
'unlearned', and never grade 0 or 1. Still, I'll see if I can this a backdoor,
but it's not at the top of my priorities at the moment. (Note that Alt+Enter
would also work)

Thanks for the feedback!

  Hi, Peter.
     I have 'endured'  :-)  3 month  and 700 cards  somewhat frustrating journey in your Mnemosyne 'forest'.  Good thing though - it works;  I hear new words from TV even  not watching it; I use them correctly {my son said so}.   Thank you again for your relentless work - can u fix the manual, too ?    :-)
    Now I'm interested in productivity; it takes too many clicks while working in major Screens.
I searched the Site and Manual for 'shortcut', "short cut", Hotkeys here:

http://mnemosyne-proj.org/help/index.php

http://mnemosyne-proj.org/search/node/hotkeys

Nothing found.  By the way, I end up empty-handed on the site a lot of times.

As usual, the  information is well hidden {for not savvy user}.

   H-e-e-e-lp!  I'd like to see every Shortcut for Windows.

Thank you.

Hi,

Try this link: http://mnemosyne-proj.org/help/keyboard-shortcuts.php

If you use the 'search' box on the website to get there, it only works
if you type in 'shortcuts' and not 'shortcut', but perhaps our
webmaster can change this behaviour.

Cheers,

Peter
