Keyboard Shortcuts to Activate Buttons

I use keyboard shortcuts to activate button options, and developers, including Apple, seem to program this capability pretty consistently.

SO, when you have a window in Pukka with three button options, e.g. "Cancel Editing And Reset," "Keep Editing Like New," and "Edit Old Post," you should be able to use Cmd + C, Cmd + K, and Cmd + E to activate these buttons, thereby obviating the need to reach for the mouse.

Does this seems like a useful feature request.

Thanks,

Hi Sam. This is a good

Hi Sam. This is a good request, but there are keyboard shortcuts already for these tasks.

1. Esc: Cancel Editing and Reset. Seems a natural fit.

2. Command-D: Keep Editing Like New. I borrowed the standard "Save Before Quit?" shortcut for "Discard Changes" here, since if you edit like new and save the bookmark, you'll lose the previous version.

3. Return: Edit Old Post. Probably the most common option, so this is the default action and thus the Return key.

Does that clear things up?

I am happy to hear any other reports of things you can't do with Pukka with the keyboard only. I have really strived to make it keyboard-accessible.
