Something to keep in mind before 1.0 brings a bunch of new users

That's not how it works. You don't distribute default.conf.

But the default key bindings have to be stored somewhere. :dunno: Are they all in one place? So there could be two sets of defaults that you could pick between?

Like the default option could include (for example):
Ctrl+F9 = build
Ctrl+Shift+B = goto matching brace

But a Visual Studio user will be used to:
Ctrl+Shift+B = build
Ctrl+] = goto matching brace

Could a new user be given an option that says what IDE are you used to, and have it set up keybindings that they are already used to? Learning curve goes way down for new users from Visual Studio then, with no negative repercussions to people used to the Code::Blocks way. :)

Visual Studio : older users (those who used VC 6) : Build : F7

thomas:
The default key bindings are currently stored in XRC. Where they will go in the future is not decided yet.
Modifications should go into the configuration, but the keybinder plugin currently stores its data in some proprietary file, too.

Oh that reminds me. Visual Studio actually does that when it starts up the first time. It asks if you want to use VS .NET keys (like I posted) or stick with the old ones. :)
