Calmar on Opera Keybindings / Shortcuts / Tips

• Opera's Homepage
• Opera's Plugin (flash, java, mplayer etc) Documentation
• Opera's Mouse Gestures
• When you have a link in the clipboard, just click with the middle-mouse-button onto a empty space for opening that link
• List of possible actions
  
  Well I didn't really find extensive documentation about all the commands, nor how to setup the keys. It seems to bind the ',' I need to write 'comma'. To bind the period, '.' literary is needed. ';' has to get substituted by a 'semicolon'. To bind >, '. shift' is necessary...
• Since you can almost completely use Opera with keys, there is nothing preventing you from using the full-screen mode!
  While in fullscreen, you get a dialog to enter a new link with o (Focus address field | Focus message list | Go to page) on my setup. You can enter there, similar to the URI-rewriting from elinks, a prefix like 'g ' and then a search string, what triggers a google search.

• My Opera keybindings/shortcuts setup (so far):

• my ~/.opera/keyboard/unix_keyboard (1).ini (plain) settings (since I don't use the mail-thing from opera, I just deleted lot of the keybindings there).
  
  my search.ini (plain)
• About the section on the keyboard .ini file (according to sgunhouse):
  • The [Application] section applies anywhere in Opera.
  • [Dialog] is fairly obvious
  • [Browser Window]: Opera's window on the desktop.
  • [Document Window]: a web tab
    E.g. the Document window contains a [Browser Widget].
    the Mail window contains a [Tree Widget] (the list view) and/or a Browser widget (the message view), etc.
