    I do most of my development on a Linux platform (RHEL or Ubuntu). I have found that I can't get the code folding keyboard shortcut to work. This is ctrl+< by default, I believe. When I add a shortcut for fold/unfold all, this works fine. I would really like the code folding shortcut to work. Any ideas on how to get this going?

      Which program (and version) are you using to edit your code? There are so many editors available;-)

            Much Love! This worked. It's kind of frustrating, however, because in the keyboard shortcuts it is listed as Ctrl+<.

            Thank you!

              Could you please file a bug report about the keybinding being wrong?

              Thank you!

                It's because button on keyboard can have few characters. For example Ctr+, (go to bookmark)
                , but this same button have "<" character, and for printing it we must press Shift before.

                      I will not heap more scorn upon myself by posting this as a bug. However, it seems that the short-cut should read ctrl+shift+, as that is a much clearer specification of the short-cut.

                        I think the problem is that some keyboards have < as Shift-. and others have the symbol accessible without shift.
