- **A bare-letter shortcut only where nothing is typed.** A screen that filters, finds or
|
||||
composes as you type has no free letters, so its verbs are Ctrl chords — one table,
|
||||
`session._CTRL_LETTER_CHORDS`, each letter the mnemonic of its action (`^P` paths,
|
||||
`^U` URL, `^Y` you, `^L` log in). A screen that takes no typing may spend a bare letter instead (the
|
||||
`^U` URL, `^Y` you, `^L` log in). One verb per letter across screens is the preference,
|
||||
not the rule (JP, 2026-10-10): a screen that has no use for a letter's verb may give the
|
||||
letter a verb of its own, so long as nothing between the keyboard and the app takes it —
|
||||
`^A`/`^B` are screen's and tmux's prefixes, and `^M`/`^I`/`^H`/`^J` *are* Enter, Tab,
|
||||
Backspace and LF. A screen that takes no typing may spend a bare letter instead (the
|
||||
Time Machine's `w`, the dashboard's `s`, the device splash's `h`). Either way the key
|
||||
is named where it acts: in the hint, and on the PicoCalc's lane.
|
||||
- Empty states are lowercase muted, optionally `— explanation`, never parenthesized.
