This page lists the keyboard shortcuts defined in WikidPad.

Additionally it documents some testing environments and the test results since there are a few shortcuts with problems (as of March 2016, with WikidPad 2.3beta13).

Some discussion about the problems can be found here:

Some more will be included in a (to be created) issue here: https://github.com/WikidPad/WikidPad/issues
