For much faster navigation and formatting you can use access keys in DokuWiki. Unfortunately how they work depends on your Browser and Operating System. Usually you hit ALT and the Key. On the Macintosh it's CTRL and the Key. In Opera, because it already uses extensive keyboard navigation (and to stop pages hijacking user-specified key mappings), you need to enable access key mode using Shift and ESC first before you can hit them directly. In some browsers using the access key only sets the focus and you have to hit Enter after using it.

Here is a quick roundup on trying if it works. We will try to get back to the start page. Just follow the steps until something happens.

• Hit ALT + SHIFT + H
• Hit ALT + H
• Hit CTRL + H
• Hit ALT + H then press Enter
• Hit CTRL + H then press Enter
• Hit Shift + ESC then press H

On MACs, you should try CTRL + key.
Hint: In Safari 4+ you might have to use CTRL + ALT + key

ALT+H is simply going to bring up the help menu on many browsers!

Hint: in Opera 8.51 you must press SHIFT + ESC then press the Accesskey and then press ENTER for all accesskeys other then H and F. In Opera 9.0 things gets a little bit easier: press SHIFT + ESC, then press the Accesskey.

Hint: Firefox 2 uses ALT + Shift + Key to avoid conflicts with built-in browser access keys. To restore old behaviour on Windows, type about:config in address bar, find ui.key.contentAccess property and set it to 4

In Mozilla based browsers the modificator key for the browser UI and the HTML access keys can be configured through the ui.key.generalAccessKey, ui.key.chromeAccess and ui.key.contentAccess config options. Linux Users might want to use the otherwise unused “Windows key” as access key modificator by setting ui.key.contentAccess to 8.

These keys are always available in DokuWiki.

These additional keys are available in edit mode:
