Most operations in Opera can be executed by using the keyboard. Below is
a list of functions associated with keys, organized by usage. In addition, all the functions
in the main menu can be accessed by using the normal menu method in conjunction with the
ALT key (e.g. ALT + F and then P to print a document).
Tip! The shortcut CTRL + M opens a context-specific
sub menu. In mouse-mode, this can be accessed using the right mouse button.
