On my Win98 system, opening the window you suggest, everytime I enter 
ctrl-[letter] I get a warning ding from the computer and nothing 
happens.  I can't use the letter keys with ANY altering key.  As a 
matter of fact, FinWin on my system won't allow the use of keystrokes to 
navigate around this panel at all, other than cursor keys and the enter 
key, and the tab key to switch between the active buttons.

As to there being no difference between ctrl-A and ctrl-a, I am not 
quite sure how to interpret that, because on my computer I can't get to 
ctrl-A, because I can't get the capital A without hitting Shift (or 
having caps-lock turned on, another state-altering key).

As to whether ctrl-j give a carriage return or not, I would think it all 
depends on how the software interprets the key-presses.  I can define a 
macro for ctrl-j in WordPerfect that works when I press ctrl-j but it 
doesn't give me a carriage return.  And similarly I can press return and 
not invoke the macro.

So I would guess it would all depend on whether the underlying software 
is interpreting ASCII codes or ANSI codes or keyboard scan codes.
