Turtle Art Hotkeys
See Activities/Turtle Art.

Terminal Hotkeys
The Terminal activity must pass all Ctrl keys to the shell, so all the Sugar hotkeys starting with Ctrl must also have Shift pressed:


 * Ctrl + Shift + c = copy to clipboard
 * Ctrl + Shift + v = paste from clipboard
 * Ctrl + Shift + q = quit activity

Emulator Hotkeys
Emulator hotkeys work in,   or if the environment variable   is defined. They do not function in.
 * Alt + Shift + q to quit Sugar

Some of the Sugar hotkeys may not work in an emulator.

The undiscoverables

 * Hidden Features: The Undiscoverable

Keys that don't work but could

 * Esc is not handled by the majority of activities; because they usually have no dialogs.
