"Amend last commit" is NOT an action. It switches a state. It is common in Windows GUIs that every control, including menu items, has a hotkey associated, the underlined letter in the caption, and the hotkey to access that UI control is Alt+that letter. It's not necessarily a matter of moving around. And, BTW, this hotkey thing is also the case on my Linux desktop (KDE-based). But of course, git-gui is different and totally off track here. It has *zero* controls marked for hotkey-accessibility. I was just hoping to spark an effort to make some of the controls marked and hotkey-accessible. -- Hannes
