Description Govin Varadarajan

There seems to be a few differences in the shorcuts for some menu items in the File Menu of Eclipse.  

"New   Shift+Alt+N" on Redhat Linux while it is "New   Alt+Shift+N" on Windows.

"Save All   Shift+Ctrl+S" on Redhat Linux while it is "Save All   Ctrl+Shift+S" on Windows

"Close All    Shift+Ctrl+W" on Redhat Linux while it is "Close All    Ctrl+Shift+W" on Windows

Although it is just that the Key sequence is different on the two platforms, it results in the failure of some TPTP AGR Functional Tests, that were originally developed on Windows, on Linux Platform.  Not sure where the fix must be on the Eclipse UI side or the TPTP AGR side.  Am initially putting it on Eclipse UI plate.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
