Opera 7.5 Compatible Keyboard setup (v. 1.30)

A keyboard setup that takes you back to the Opera 7.5 era, which still had all the classic shortcuts as build up from the first Opera versions.

This setup was made by editing the standard keyboard shortcuts as shipped by Opera 10.6, so you will not miss out on modern features. Some examples of changes as compared to the modern keyboard shortcuts:

  • New tab: Ctrl+N and Ctrl+Shift+N (modern: Ctrl+T)
  • New browser window: Ctrl+Alt+N (modern: Ctrl+N)
  • Clone tab: Ctrl+Alt+Shift+N (modern: no shortcut)
  • Add to bookmarks: Ctrl+T (modern: Ctrl+D)
  • Toggle display of images: G (modern: I , if single-key is on)
  • Toggle Author mode/User mode: Ctrl+G (modern: Shift+G, if single-key is on)
  • Print preview: P (modern: Ctrl+Shift+P)
  • Reopen page: Ctrl+Alt+Z (modern: Ctrl+Shift+T)
  • Paste and go: Ctr+D (modern: Ctrl+Shift+V)
  • Paste and go in background: Ctr+Shift+D (modern: no shortcut)
  • Zoom in/out 100%: Ctrl+plus/minus (modern: no shortcut)
  • Go to Keyboard Help page: Ctrl+B (modern: no shortcut)
  • View source: Ctrl+F3 (modern: Ctrl+U)
  • Validate source: Ctrl+Alt+V (modern: Ctrl+Alt+Shift+U)
