  <title>Keyboard accessibility</title>

  <note style="important">
    <p>These keys will only have an effect in windows in which the menubar is
    set to be visible.</p>
  </note>

  <p>You can navigate the <app>Terminal</app> menu using a combination of keys
  that are called <em>mnemonics</em> or a special key that takes you directly
  to the first menu in the menubar which is called a <em>menu accelerator
  key</em>.</p>

  <section id="mnemonics">
    <title>Mnemonics</title>

    <p><app>Terminal</app> menu can be accessed by combining the <key>Alt</key>
    key and a letter of the menu item. The letter that you need to use to
    access the menu will be underlined when you hold down the
    <key>Alt</key>.</p>

    <p>For example, view the <gui style="menu">Edit</gui> menu using
    <keyseq><key>Alt</key><key>E</key></keyseq>. Similarly, you can access
    <gui style="menu">File</gui> menu using
    <keyseq><key>Alt</key><key>F</key></keyseq>.</p>

    <p>To enable mnemonics:</p>

    <steps>
      <item>
        <p>Select <guiseq><gui style="menu">Edit</gui> <gui style="menuitem">
        Preferences</gui> <gui style="tab">General</gui></guiseq>.</p>
      </item>
      <item>
        <p>Check <gui style="checkbox">Enable mnemonics</gui>.</p>
      </item>
    </steps>

  </section>

  <section id="menu-accelerator">
    <title>Menu accelerator key</title>

    <p>This setting brings up the <gui style="menu">File</gui> menu the menu
    accelerator key is pressed. This key is usually <key>F10</key> by
    default.</p>

    <steps>
      <item>
        <p>Seleccione <guiseq><gui style="menu">Editar</gui> <gui style="menuitem">Preferencias</gui> <gui style="tab">Atallos de teclado</gui></guiseq>.</p>
      </item>
      <item>
        <p>Check <gui style="checkbox">Enable the menu accelerator
        key</gui>.</p>
      </item>
