Menu Shortcut Keys
In addition to having an access key, a menu item can have a shortcut key
associated with it. A shortcut key is different from an access key, because the menu
does not have to be active for the shortcut key to work. Also, an access key
is always associated with a menu item, while an shortcut key is usually (but does not have to be) associated with a menu item.
Text that identifies the shortcut key is added to the menu-item text string.
The shortcut text appears to the right of the menu item name, after a backslash
and tab character (\t). For example, "&Close\tAlt+F4" represents a Close command with the ALT+F4 key combination as its shortcut key and with the letter "C" as its access
key. For more information, see Keyboard Accelerators.
