SCNR... Perhaps some tool called, say lazset*), could be created and used to set/change key shortcuts, e.g.: lazset --primary-config-path=c:\example\whatever --set="ContextSensitiveHelpKey=ShiftF1" or e.g. lazset --primary-config-path=c:\example\whatever --set="ContextSensitiveHelpKey=" or lazset --primary-config-path=c:\example\whatever --delete="ContextSensitiveHelpKey" ... which would use the existing IDE code (same way lazbuild does) and that could be automated in e.g. a batch file or even an installer (e.g. only called when KDE is detected/selected). A school, company, organization or user could maintain scripts that change these settings after each new install/upgrade, these scripts could be made available in the CCR or Lazarus repository, on the forum, etc...
