NCSA Mosaic for the X Window System User's Guide

Shortcuts and Keyboard Options

Underlined Keys on a Selected Menu

Each underlined letter is a shortcut to the same action as the corresponding menu item after the menu is open on your screen. You must have first selected a menu for the underlined shortcuts to work.

Hotkeys

While your mouse pointer is in the hypertext viewing area, the following hotkeys (keyboard shortcuts for common actions) are active. As the table below shows, in most instances, NCSA Mosaic accepts either case for the hotkey.

Text Selection

You can select text from the viewing area as though you were in a normal workstation or editor window. Cut and paste into other X Window System windows as usual by pressing the left mouse button to begin selecting text and then holding the button down and dragging. Alternately, release the left mouse button and use the right mouse button to complete the selection.

The Fancy Selections setting under the Options menu causes the paste function to imitate the formatted display in the NCSA Mosaic viewing area.
