Re: [libreoffice-users] How to abbreviate the first name of the author?

Hi :)

Lol, i totally agree.  I just never thought about it.  I did notice someone 
taking extravagant care in a very precise guide ages ago.  Hmm Ctrl+c would be 
Ctrl and the + key and the c?  I got told off for using the +  one time.  I have 
even been told off for using the space too but it's too confusing for a higher 
percentage of people if they saw Ctrlc in a guide.  There is an old 'joke' about 
spending hours looking for the "Any" key.  I think Ctrl+c is fine unless you 
bump into my old, very fussy and ex boss.
Regards from
Tom :)

Sorry for this being very off topic, but why does most people write
Ctrl C, Ctrl V and so on? Shouldn't it rather be Ctrl c, Ctrl v?
Ctrl C should be the same thing as Ctrl Shift c, shouldn't it? Since C
is the same as Shift c, I mean (unless you didn't create your own very
suspect keyboard layout, of course… like I did, but not THAT suspect…
☺

I would even prefer writing like Ctrl+c, since the ”+” indicates that
”Ctrl” should not be released before the ”c” is hit. That way this
syntax for the Compose key makes sense: Compose o c ⇨ © (press the
compose key, release it, press o, release it, press c, release it ⇨ a
© appears at the cursor's position).

Once again, sorry for being off topic here, I just couldn't stop myself… ☺


Kind regards
