Subject: [MiNT] Hotkeys & global keys
Recently I added some features to Conholio (my terminal emulator project), 
which used CTRL+ALT+n.
Hmm... I don't think this is a rule, but I'd say that Ctrl-Alt-shortcuts 
should be avoided in apps.
- which key combinations are reserved for global hotkeys
Atleast Ctrl+Alt+Del/Undo/Fx. And then there's the hotkeys used in XaAES:
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

|CTRL+ALT+CLRHOME      |Redraw screen

|CTRL+ALT+A            |Terminates all applications (A list of exceptions 
can be specified)                                  |
|----------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|CTRL+ALT+D            |Open the screenshot dialog (XAAESNAP.PRG is

|
|----------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

|CTRL+ALT+SPACE        |Open main menu bar

|CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+SPACE  |Open menu in current window if it has one, else open

|----------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|CTRL+ALT+TAB          |Cycle open applications

+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

That I don't know.
