Selects the post or PM.

Alt + T toggles the posting page between visual and bbcode modes while Alt + C submits the text in the editor.

Since we use alt+c a lot in Polish, this plugin is a lifesaver, thank you!

The crime here is needing to disable proboards ill-chosen keyboard shortcuts; why on earth they thought it was ok to hijack system wide shortcuts for their (our) private use defeats me. Alt-D gets me every time (ok I know F6, but my fingers still haven't learnt)

I had forgot to rate it earlier. I had no way to use / a ? because both Alt + Q and Alt + W were blocked. This plugin is really helpful. :)

I requested so long ago that there be an ability to disable Alt + D a ProBoards administrator told me it would not be possible. But, it apparently is! This plugin is a lifesaver! Thanks!
