NuggED: Keyboard Shortcuts
You will definitely be most productive with NuggED if you learn these keyboard shortcuts.
Most of them just provide instant access to menu items, but others perform special functions!
For Mac users, "Ctrl" refers to the "Command" key.
Main Window: Shortcuts, Mouse Functions
Script Window: Shortcuts
Note: Most of the smaller sub-windows (for example, the Find window) respond
to standard key presses such as Enter, Escape, Delete, etc.
| Main Window Shortcuts |
Note: The alphanumeric hotkeys (such as 'A' or 'X' without '+Ctrl')
only work if the graphical viewport has keyboard focus.
This way you can type those characters in the property sidebar.
Some hotkeys only work if certain types of objects
are selected. These are indicated by [brackets].

the object's width and height properties.
††† Currently, only one "level of undo" is implemented. Sorry!
