[accelerators]

The [accelerators] section of the initialization file enables you to map a logical function, such as fileopen to a keyboard sequence (an accelerator) such as Ctrl+F7.

Each entry has the following syntax:

LogicalName = Accelerator

Arguments

LogicalName—logical name used in the Accelerator property of a menu. The maximum length of a logical name is 30 characters.
Accelerator—key or keystroke combination to use as the accelerator. Key modifiers (Shift, Alt, and Ctrl) can be connected with the plus (+), minus (-) or space characters. The accelerator is displayed next to the menu item when the menu item is displayed.

Description

Although the notation used for accelerator keys is not case-sensitive, the terms used are fixed. Thus Ctrl, not Control. If the accelerator is not recognized, an error is put in the transcript log and the LogicalName is not assigned.

On Microsoft Windows, some keys are reserved, that is, they have a standard meaning for Windows actions, and therefore should not be redefined.
