Cool that list is very useful.

I wonder how he learned all that

text books about windows, windows.com. many different sources.

some of them i know but thier are some like Move Cursor Right One Word which i never knew how to do

Learned all that? The chance is he copied and pasted it from a different website, you could probably find that list if you do a search on google

yea... I did.... lol.. I just thought It would be helpful for our members!

And it is....well done

whats funny though it that ^^^ they thought you wrote it all...lmao

Yep, I have a super photo-genic memory

Besides that... I even said "Here is a list of keyboard shortcuts for windows that I came accross... "

Oh well... you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink!

haha.. that's nice and helpful! especially for someone lazy like me

I do read careful, its just the comment from 'Simply the best' that says, i wonder how he remembered all that, kinda thinks that Llama wrote it all himself...

Llama, did you really type all that?

I thought you copied and pasted it off of something...
