    Top Foot.ie Tip: ALT+S to post

    I only discovered this recently and I couldn't live without it now: In any place you're posting a message, including private messages, you can just hit ALT+S to post the message rather than tab to the Submit button. Bloody handy that. Any other top tips?

    Did you ever notice that in every painting of Adam & Eve, they have belly buttons. Think about that...take as long as you want.

    can't believe you didn't know that. I always use the alt+ controls in e-mail, so presumed they worked here (and on pretty much every other forum...)

    So do I, which makes it all the more annoying that I didn't notice it on vB until a few weeks ago! I use vi as my editor on *nix ffs, I was raised on keyboard shortcuts.

    Its not to do with VB, but when I discovered Alt+Tab (cycles through Windows) a few years ago it was great. F5 is good too sometimes.

    On a Mac alt+s = ß

    I guess that's a handy tip too, if you're posting German.

    How does a 1 handed person press cntr alt del if they need to shut down a task ? Always thought it was strange that they would choose keys so far apart for such an important function
