I'd like to see more keyboard equivalents for the menu commands.
ENTER should do "Start Thinking"
ESC should do "Move Now"
PAGEDOWN should be the opposite of PAGEUP
TAB should toggle board labels on/off
Control-S should save the game
Control-G should go to the game selection screen |

I would like there to be a keyboard shortcut for switching the piece set. |

Control-S does save the game (try it).
These are good suggestions and more short-cuts will be appearing in the next release.

In Zillions of Games 2, I added a lot of your requested short-cuts:
* PAGEDOWN now is now the opposite of PAGEUP
* Control-G goes to the game selection screen
* F6 toggles the board labels
* A toolbar button was added for switching the piece set (this means you can also see when an alternate set is available!)
(F5 for Start Thinking and ESC for Move Now were added in 1.2.1) |

Currently the keyboard cursor (arrow) keys take you to different moves in a game's move list. In maze games and others like "Snakepit" which have only one moveable piece, it would be faster and easier to use the cursor keys to move 1 step right, left, up or down. Clicking and dragging requires good hand-eye coordination, which can be frustrating on close-spaced grids! Does Zillions support piece movement using the cursor keys? |
