- Ctrl-I is the same as tab. Do you really want to have to make the
- distinction with the scancode?
-
- If you want to make it easy, we should stay away from Ctrl-I (tab),
- Ctrl-M (return), Ctrl-H (backspace), Ctrl-? (delete), Ctrl-[ (escape),
- and probably a few others.
-
- I've seen some of those in the suggestions and the standard (like
- Ctrl-[), and they should be removed or make life for the programmer that
- much harder. It isn't TOO bad to have to look at the scancode (I do it
- whenever I need to know the difference between return and enter and
- ctrl-m), but it's something I'd want to stay away from.
