You can use any keybindings you want to for anything (unless your
window manager preempts them) -- that's one of the better features of
ApplixWare. For some reason, though, unlike most people, I find the
ApplixWare interface as a whole fairly unpleasant to work with -- just 
doesn't seem smooth and responsive (which it ought to be with 233 Mhz
and 32 megs of RAM). Maybe as a long-time WordPerfect user, I have
higher standards ... or maybe just different standards, who knows? Oh, 
well, now that WP 8 is available for Linux, I'm looking forward to
switching back ... if I can ever find the time for such a big
transition.
