My suggestion for 24: Modernizing global keystrokes

...and adding a couple. (Windows folk say Control where I say Command)

1. Command-A should be "Select All", not "About this game".

2. Command-S should have a dual function. In traditional OOTP, it should save the game. In PT, it should submit the team. I understand there's a button to do that. Sometimes keystrokes are more convenient.

3. Command-P should link to the system printing dialogs. Having to use a web browser as an intermediary to print may have saved a ton of cash when times were tight, but as the game becomes more and more mainstream, so should its features. Printing right from the app would be a big timesaver, and would enable folks with limited memory to better operate.

4. The up and down arrow keys should function in fields to move you to the beginning and end of the field.

5. Command-N should start the process of creating a New Game in traditional OOTP.

6. The Enter key on extended keyboards is ignored. It should function the same as Return does.

7. (NEW) Command-L should log you out of PT AND submit the team.

8. (NEW) Command-T should jump you from PT to the Home Screen of the traditional OOTP game that is active, and vice versa.

9. (NEW) On multi-page listings (like the Auction House or drafts), Command-Up Arrow and Command-Down Arrow should jump forward/backwards one page. Also, the Page Up and Page Down keys on extended keyboards could be enabled for the same purpose.

10. (NEW) The Home and End keys on extended keyboards could be enabled to jump to the beginning/end of multi-page listings.

These are just a few things that have accumulated in my register as I play. Does anyone else have suggestions they'd like to add?

It's on Macs. Basically the same as Control (Ctrl).

I don't really feel the need for nor particularly want a "print" macro, owing to it being 2023. I like implementing Ctrl-A and some of the other more common keystrokes though. To some extent the GUI they use (from PISD?) isn't completely built for stuff like shift-clicking or ctrl-clicking to mass select since selects on most screens is a toggle, but thinking about it, that would still be a nice add if it's not too much work.

I feel embarrassed to admit the amount of times I have tried to ctrl+s before realizing that such does not work in ootp.

I would love page up/page down to switch between roster lists for MLB, AAA, AA, etc.

I thought I read here somewhere that -/+ keys will zoom you in and out of the field view? Never tried it but that would be cool if it did.
