[Fwd: Re: [Design] [D/f] Copy and Paste and keyboard shortcuts]

[Alec Flett]

Personally I think we should try to be consistent within Chandler itself 
across platforms, except for those very, very unique cases that are 
consistent across all apps on a particular platform.

So for me this means:
1) Cmd/Ctrl-Q for Quit on the mac
2) Cmd/Ctrl-H for hide on the mac
3) Alt-F4 to close the current window on windows
4) F2 to edit on windows

I honestly can't think of any more.. I mean there might be 1-2 others 
maybe?

Furthermore, looking at Mimi's evaluation of outlook, I would rather use 
the iCal shortcuts on mac than the goofy outlook shortcuts.
