For example, you want to manage your bookmarks by opening the "Bookmarks" menu
and select "Manage Bookmarks..." command.
Using keyboard navigation only, you have to:
1. press and hold <ALT> key,
2. press and release <B> key,
3. release <Alt> key, and then:
4. press and hold <ALT> key,
5. press and release <M> key,
6. release <Alt> key,
It would speed up key nav speed by saving Steps 3 and 4.
I can do it in Windows Notepad. Can Moz do it?

->aaronl. punt as needed.
i see this on winnt and linux [2001.06.25.xx am comm branch bits]. using dr_j's
test above, if you don't release the Alt key at step (3), you end up dismissing
the Bookmarks menu.

these should work:
<alt>;b;m
<alt>-b;m
a-b means a in conjunction w/ b.
a;b means a released before pressing b

Confused. Is this request to have this work?
1. Press Alt.
2. Press B (Bookmarks menu opens)
3. Press M (Manage Bookmarks window opens)
4. Release Alt.
welp according to nc4 and notepad, that general feature should work :o.
reporter: imoi the two strokes i described are much easier than the one you're
asking us to support. But this bug is fine since we should support what you're
asking for...
Severity: normal → enhancement
Well, to tell the truth, I can get to the Pref menu real fast simply by pressing
Alt-E-E. Yeah, I'm a Pref tweaking freak... I looooove tweaking pref.
