Hello,
I read a lot of documentation (man pages, info manuals) inside konqueror, mostly because I find it more readable inside a browser and very fast to use since I can get it just typing Alt-F2 -> info:tar/tutorial, and look at it when working in konsole. I think that it would be even more useful if we could use the info keyboard commands when reading info manuals, so we could go to the next or previous page not only clicking on the link, but also typing "n" and "p", or "t" to go to the top node, and so on. Since the more used info keys are the single-character ones, they won't conflict with the usual konqueror keyboard shortcuts. This would make me work a lot faster, since this way I don't need to move my hands from the keyboard. regards gerlos

Unfortunately, Qt does not support setting single typewriter keys as Shortcuts. Other keys ( such as F1, etc. ) can be set as shortcuts.

But in kmail and knode for example I can use "n" and "p" to brose through a list of messages... is this case different? OK, the ones in knode and kmail are not shortcuts, they seem to me "hardcoded" and not configurable by the user. But I' didn't ask for user-configurable shortcuts, I just asked to have the possibility to browse info documentation in konqueror using info keys, that should work in a way similar to kmail, for example. Maybe my English is not good, sorry, let's try to explain it another time: I'd like that the info reader in konqueror worked like the command info. This way, when I press "l" the reader should display the last node seen, "p" should display the previous node in the document, "n" the next one, "u" should go up one level and so on... Hope this way is better gerlos

That is because that is "sorting" of the view of information. The Konqueror info page cannot work like this because it simply generates some HTML which is then displayed by Konqueror. There might be another way of doing it though.
