I accidentally deleted your other email regarding
the keyboard. So, I am replying to it as per a copy
forwarded by Vivek Iyyer.

Accelerator keys in translated versions (like Ctrl-A
for Select All) will work only if the translator has
preserved these in her translations, i.e., the
translated messages should also have a "_A" noted in
them. If you let me know what application you are
using, I could check this. My guess would be that
the accelerator keys have not been properly
incorporated into the translations, in which case,
this should be filed as a bug report against the
l10n component of the application.
What to use for accelerator keys remains a problem.
One could still use Ctrl-C for copy, but then the
mnemonic value of the original is lost. Ctrl-na (Hindi
"na" for "nakal") could also be used, but then the
problem becomes that the accelerator keys move with
the keymap in use. I think that it is possible to
have both Ctrl-C, and Ctrl-na, which might be the
best compromise.
