Description DJ Houghton CLA 2002-03-12 17:27:02 EST 
I use the keyboard a lot and therefore make lots of use of the keyboard 
shortcuts.

It would be really nice to have "Go To... -> Resource" mapped to ctrl-shift-O 
or something like that. It is a lot quicker than ctrl-shift-T and also allows 
you to open editors on non-java files.

This action is specific to the Navigator view.
Views do not add items to the main menu, which is the only way of getting an 
accelerator.  JDT defines a separate action set for the Open Type action.
I'm reluctant to do the same for Open Resources for 2.0.
This is the sort of thing that would be addressed by allowing keybinding 
customization (post 2.0).
Currently you can use <menu key>,O,R to get this if the Navigator is active.
If not, you can use Ctrl+F7 to switch to Navigator.

This request has nothing to do with the action set framework.
Comment 4 Knut Radloff CLA 2002-09-06 12:44:05 EDT 
Ctrl+shift+T is open type not Go To type.
There is no Open Resource menu item although there is/was a request for it (bug 
11008). 
Please clarify whether you want an Open Resource menu with accelerator key or 
Go To->Resource added to the Navigate menu. Note that the current Go To menu 
items do not have accelerator keys. It seems like you would rather have an Open 
Resource menu item.

What I am looking for is a keyboard shortcut for the Goto -> Resource which is 
currently available on the Navigator.

Basically something which will allow me to open an editor on any resource in 
the workspace.

Marking as duplicate of bug 11008. If bug 11008 is fixed you will be able to 
open any resource by pressing the accelerator keys (tentatively Ctrl+Shift+R). 
This is better than what you were originally asking for because you don't even 
have to double click the file/hit enter.
