Thanks Brian, Eg1 is actually for just F1, Eg2 is for Ctrl-F1
This is as it appears on the J Playground itself if you click Help … showing
this section…
https://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/Playground/Shortcuts
Which shows in the last section…
Focus in Term or Edit
F1 Vocabulary
Ctrl+F1 Context-Sensitive
Ctrl+D Input Log
Ctrl+Shift+C Center Panes
Ctrl+Shift+L Flip Panes
Ctrl+Shift+T Clear Term
Thanks for the info, I am still unable to make F1 or Ctrl-F1 work, so unsure
what might be the cause, but your feedback suggests the problem is on my laptop
config, not in the J Playground, so no further questions here.
If you (or anyone) has further thoughts or suggestions, please email me
directly at [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>, and if I am able to
resolve I can pass thoughts on to the team to enhance the wiki page. I can
also screen share via Zoom that may help diagnose.
Thanks for your thoughts and reply.
