+ <title>Keyboard shortcuts</title>
+
+ <p>Keyboard shortcuts are combinations of keys that allow you to perform
+ actions, such as opening the settings dialog or accessing a feature inside
+ <app>Terminal</app> quickly. These shortcuts can be modified to suit your
+ preferences.</p>
+
+ <p>To change a keyboard shortcut:</p>
+ <steps>
+ <item>
+ <p>Press the menu button in the top-right corner of the window and select
+ <gui style="menuitem">Preferences</gui>.</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>In the sidebar, select <gui>Shortcuts</gui>.</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>Make sure <gui style="checkbox">Enable shortcuts</gui> is selected.</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>Select the shortcut that you wish to edit by clicking on it.</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>Once the shortcut is selected, click on the shortcut key combination
+ to edit it.</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>Press your desired shortcut key combination as you would enter it to
+ use it. The keys that you can use include <key>Alt</key>,
+ <key>Alt Gr</key>, <key>Ctrl</key>, <key>Shift</key>, <key>Super</key>,
+ number and letter keys.</p>
+ <note>
+ <p>Mnemonic key combinations, such as <keyseq><key>Alt</key>
+ <key>F</key></keyseq> will not work.</p>
+ </note>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>Once you have entered your new shortcut, it will automatically be
+ saved and you should see it in the list next to the corresponding
+ action.</p>
+ </item>
+ </steps>
+
+ <note style="tip">
+ <p>To disable a shortcut, edit it and press the <key>Backspace</key>
+ instead of the new shortcut.</p>
