Shortcut keys and mouse combinations

Note: Shortcut keys can be changed by editing the file key.ini in your data directory (possibly also by creating a copy in your settings directory, not sure). Please make sure to only replace key combinations with other key combinations, otherwise you'll most likely make the game crash. A list of commands and keys, see this topic.
