As a new user, I need a prominently listed hotkey while inside the app to access a help page with a list of commands.

Describe the solution you'd like
Instead of having to reference a separate website window with a list of hotkeys, I would like a page with a list or cheatsheet of hotkeys so i can quickly hit a hotkey (ex. ctrl-/) and get a list of accepted hotkeys. This help hotkey should always be listed at the bottom status bar.

Also if i hit invalid ctrl-[key] hotkey. a message should say "invalid hotkey: ctrl-[key]"

Hey! Thanks for the suggestions, I've recently be rewriting the input mechanism for Ox and this is a great idea. In the next update, you'll be able to modify the default key bindings by editing the configuration file and a help menu is a great way to not only help newcomers but also as a way to check your key bindings. I could also add the "invalid hotkey" message as an item in the configuration file as I can imagine some users finding that annoying but I can also imagine others finding that useful.

This can be toggled in versions greater than 0.3.2 by pressing Ctrl + K to access the command line and then typing help and pressing enter

To disable it after enabling, run the help command again.
