Is there a list of key shortcuts for the IDE? I am specifically looking for the the one for toggle comments on and off.
I´m not sure about a list, but for what you want crtl+K will do.
edit: that headless laptop you got there looks like...an AMIGA! hehe, welcome.
Welcome in the Forums!
I dont know a resource with all shortcuts, someone should add one to the helpfile.
Most shortcuts are the same like in all word-processing softwares, additionally these may be important (most of them can be found in the IDE menus):
crtl+k - comment/unkomment code (needs selected code)
ctrl+g - jump to function or type definition (curser needs to be on a user defined function or type name), this has problems if you have several functions with same name (inside types)
crtl+space / ctrl+t - complete text (works with functions, types, variables etc.)
ctrl+l - go to code line
ctrl+e - find corresponding bracket (curser needs to be on (,),{,},[ or ] )
ctrl+u - make all leters to small letters (needs text to be selected)
ctrl+shift+u - make all leters to capitals (needs text to be selected)
F9 - add debugging stop point (sorry dont know how this is called in English)
F5 - compile project for win and run its exe
F8 - compile project for win (dont run it)
shift+F8 - compile multiplatform
Now, although I didn't like the answer because my keyboard has only one Ctrl key and it's approximately 7 feet from the k key(see image below), I thank you for the response!
Also please give me a url on how to update a program I already posted to the showroom. The Level Editor is working much better now and is currently in use, but the version I uploaded is moderately kacked. (one may read all about that here:http://flatank.blogspot.com/2013/06/super-metroid.html (http://flatank.blogspot.com/2013/06/super-metroid.html)) Also, thank you for the welcome- I shall endeavor to not be repulsive.

My keyboard has a yellow sticker near the F5 key so I can nail that sucker in the dark as I use a couple IDEs that have F5 tied to Compile.

We hope not :good:
About the crtl issue, if it is too bad, maybe you could map right alt to work as crtl?
I don´t know how to of my mind right now, it is just an idea.
Yeah that keyboard design sucks, I would hate to use that. If you want to map keys, you may want to have a look at the software called autohotkey.
I think you can update your showroom game with this url: http://www.glbasic.com/password.php?lang=en
Welcome...
If the image it's scale 1:1 I think you buy a Keyboard for a Giant People!!! :D :D :D
I have 2 Control Keys, but the Right I think at today have a sunshynne I never pressed, and offcourse I have 2 arms, or 3?¿ :D :D :D :D
Welcome again and enjoy!!!

Oh, I disagree. I like it very much. I bought two. I am using a sewing machine desk and where the sewing machine goes, I have my keyboard. A full sized one is cramped there.
I have a usb 10-key pad for when I need it (mostly in Blender) In the pic below, it isn't shown but it usually sits where the PlayBook with the blue cover is next to the game pad. See how much room I have for my little keyboard.

uhmm nice to ear here the word Blender, another 3d guy, this it's cool, where are extrange guys here doing 3D...
Nice image in the computer , some actual development?¿... this it's very nice...
Wellcome again and I hope we share info about blender, I'm just learning now, but make a lot of years I do 3D, but with another tools like 3ds max and C4d... you will meet anothers 3D guys here...
Greetings!!!
I see you have your gear pretty much ZIPPED on those tables :)
On my end, I could never work with a keyboard like that, numeric pad is a must for my doings.

I love Blender with love. One can view some of my non ground breaking work on my youtube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/lordlatch/videos (http://www.youtube.com/user/lordlatch/videos)

Aye, that is my main work area where most of the magic happens and it was cleaned and posed for the photo. As I said, I have a USB 10 key pad I use. I prefer it as I can put on the left or right of my keyboard, but mostly it lives in front of monitor 3(from the left)
I saw your 3d city stuff, looks like suicidator city generator, it is really great!
Bullet support on blender is also great, but the best thing I use it for, must be the fluid calculations. It is free and can do a better job then payed apps.
Try a tsunami on that city of yours, one can play with it forever! :good:
^The cloud city I made but the ground based cities ARE Suicidator.

That is a famous indie game I was playing for a while known as Cave Story.
My games are here:

Like Erico I liked the city, I'm really thinking buy the city genrator, perhpas for make models for streets and this things can be great.. I have to study a bit more if can do interesting buildings...
I'd be more interested in writing my own, if I had time for that sort of thing.
Yep, suicidator is really nice, I still hold to an old version of blender that supports the free version of it.
I would not know hoe to start doing such, but suicidator , iirc, is script based, python I guess.
You are not doing too good on cave story there on the pic :P
Did you ever finish it? It is an awesome game all around.
Yes Blender is scripted with Python with which I have some experience, but I know nothing about the API.
Sadly, I'm not the gamer I used to be so when I couldn't get past the part with the water that has currents in it after a few tries, I lost interest. I will be using a couple of elements from it on my Sup*r M*troid wannabe.
