If you’ve made a lot of changes to REAPER’s keyboard shortcuts, you might find it helpful to have a printed list to reference. REAPER actually has this feature built in with an auto-generated html list.
All you need to do is press Shift+F1 (+ function key maybe on Apple keyboards) which will create the list of all the currently assigned actions, and open the html file in your default browser. You can then save this as a pdf, or send it to your printer.

Hi!

This is a great help! Thank you!
It would be great to have a printable PDF Version of this, for hanging it up.
Could you please do this?

Regards
Earl
