Shortcuts Overview

Lounge

hey,

I reworked the Shortcuts Overview a little bit, added a few, probably pretty obvious commands to the overview for the sake of completeness >_<
And I also came across a shortcut (ctrl + k, to find next occurrence of a selected string) that doesn't seem to work anymore, even though the shortcut ctrl + shift + k, for opposite direction works. It was replaced by Hyperlink.

Cheers
