Shortcut keys

Sensei's Library makes use of HTML shortcut keys. Note: not every browser supports this HTML4 feature:

• in Netscape6+/Mozilla (Linux,Windows): press ALT+key
• in Netscape6+/Mozilla (Mac): press CMD+control+key
• in Safari (tested 1.2.1) (Mac): press Control+Option+key
• MSIE <5: unsupported
• MSIE5,6: pressing ALT+key selects; enter/return follows link
• Opera 7: Default under Windows is Shift+Esc, but can be set to any key combination in 'File'|'Preferences'|'Mouse and Keyboard'
• Chrome: press ALT+key (chrome uses some of these shortcuts so not all of them work)

In the following list, replace "ACC" with whatever key(s) you have to press on your browser/OS combination.
