Pretty new idea! :-))

Another suggestion:
For shortcuts with single purpose keys (A-Z,DEL,HELP,DEL,...) we always use
uppercase; 'Shift-(Cntrl)- A' is 'UParrow-(^)-A' and 'Cntrl-A' is '^A' as
on the keys the letters are always uppercase.
So if you want to press 'A' you are pressing the key 'A' (and not 'a') and
for 'Shift-A' the shift-key + the key 'A' as 'UParrow-A' shows.
For all other shortcuts with non-single purpose keys (%&>...) we use no UP-
arrow. The user just has to press the combination (with or without shift)
that the national keyboard need.
Characters that need more than the shift key have to be excluded or the
Cntrl-Alt-Shift combination that is needed shouldn't be allowed.
How about that?
