CUA Guidelines and Zed On Windows

[OnorioCatenacci]

Hi all,

One of the CUA standards that has been around for a while is that pressing F10 should bring up the menu. While I wouldn't consider this a major issue, for people who are able to touch type, having to move their hands off of the keyboard to move the mouse up to the main menu is a bit inconvenient. As far as I can tell Linux GUI's (Gnome at least) also support this conventional behavior for F10.

I'm sorry I sort of jumped the gun on this issue because I wanted to bring a solution rather than pointing out a problem and I've solved this on my own Zed branch but, of course, I'd like to add it to the main Zed repo if that's acceptable. I did (again my apologies for jumping the gun) create a bug in the Zed issues concerning this behavior as well: #27271

@notpeter was kind enough to discuss this with me a bit on Discord: https://discord.com/channels/869392257814519848/1319906240075403335/1357743378334355570

And since I mentioned having a solution here's what I came up with (in \assets\keymaps\default-linux.json)

      "home": "menu::SelectFirst",
      "shift-pageup": "menu::SelectFirst",
      "pageup": "menu::SelectFirst",
