As others have said, the J Playground is progressing incredibly well, my congratulations and thanks to all concerned for this amazing group effort.
I have one question, how do I (as a Mac User) invoke Ctrl+F1 (eg to display the word formation as explained in the last section Context Sensitive) ? I would hope to see that all such shortcuts etc are readily explained/available to all users (Windows and Mac) and the choice of keys likewise equally available. I could not find a way of invoking similar F1 behaviour natively on the Mac.
