Description Andrew Gvozdev CLA 2009-12-05 22:39:14 EST 
According to UI Guidelines http://wiki.eclipse.org/User_Interface_Guidelines#Accessibility:
> In a dialog or wizard, a shortcut key should be defined for each button or control. The shortcut key should be displayed with an underline beneath the appropriate shortcut character.

There are many pages in CDT properties or preferences that do not honor that rule, C/C++ Build, tab Behavior, Build Variables to start with and many others. In fact, few of them define shortcut keys.

Patches are welcome.
