That really cool feature of selecting text and hitting F1 as described in the screencast is not usable because my browsers (Firefox, IE) intercept F1 for help. Could you use a different key?

A fast search on Google with bypass F1 for help windows pointed me to http://lifehacker.com/software/windows/disable-windows-explorer-help-206...
It seems because of windows, not browsers. But I'm not sure, didn't tried, I use a Mac.

Have luck.

Tried both stable and dev versions for D6 with Mac Catalan version of Firefox 305 (Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.5; ca; rv:1.9.0.5) Gecko/2008120121 Firefox/3.0.5) and Mac Spanish version of Safari 3.2.1 (5525.27.1).
Can't get it to work. Also tried some key combinations.

BTW I'm spanish and my listening skills aren't as good as I wish, so I don't know if i missed something from the new features screencast (http://www.developmentseed.org/blog/2007/oct/26/new-features-and-improve...).
Tried to take a look at README file on CVS too but no luck :(

Would be nice to see that fantastic feature (select+F1) working.

I think CTRL-Shift-S works... but anyway I believe this should be changed to F2 which would be nicer.
