For interacting with the Mathematica front-end using the keyboard: shortcut keys, KeyEvents, keyboard navigation, etc.
Interacting with Mathematica front-end using the keyboard. Advanced users often find keyboard interaction faster and more powerful than using the mouse. Questions about built-in and custom keyboard shortcuts, keyboard navigation in the front end, editing key events in the KeyEventTranslations.tr file and introducing new hotstrings with InputAliases should use this tag.
Questions on the methods to customize the Front End to your needs should also use the tag customization. This should not be confused with custom-notation which is about introducing new (mathematical) symbols and formulae. Questions about the syntactic validity of some notation should use the tag syntax.
