Fetch Softworks

When you Control-click in the Fetch Shortcuts window or another shortcut list window, the shortcut list window contextual menu appears. The contents of the menu, and the behavior of the commands, depend on what type of shortcut you've clicked on. Most commands will not be available unless you Control-click a shortcut.
