Keyboard shortcuts are different for each platform.
Windows - Ctrl + <key>
Mac - Cmd + <key>, or hold the mouse down for about 1-2 seconds
for the context menus to appear.
Linux - Alt + <key>
Windows conventions are show in the table below.
Keyboard mnemonics (Window and Linux) are underlined.
Note: "[ ]" should not actually be inserted in the menus. They are a visual placeholder to indicate where a checkbox/radio button may be displayed.

Edit
Undo/Redo, Cut/Copy/Paste not currently implemented. "Card Properties..." is "Address Book Properties..." when an AB has focus and "Directory Properties..." when a Directory has focus. "Select All" disabled when an AB or Directory has focus. No Delete key is shown for the Mac. "Del" for Win and Linux. Delete menu item follows platform specific behavior. Forward delete for Windows and Linux, and Backspace delete for Mac. |
Comment: Users should be able to "Cut" or "Delete" an Address Book Card and "Undo" should be available to get the Card back. |
