+<sect1>Changing Key Binding of Short-Cut Key
+<p>
+Sylpheed's graphical interface is based on GTK. This means
+that it is very simple to change the key binding
+(shortcut key, hotkey) for menu items. If you are used to
+a certain key combination from another program, you can tell
+Sylpheed to use that same key combination.
+<p>
+The procedure is very simple. Suppose you want to change the
+key binding for getting new mail (message menu) from Alt-I
+to Ctrl-M.
+<p>
+
<itemize>
-<item>Alt-T: open tool menu
-<item>Alt-A: open addressbook
-<item>Alt-L: open logfile
+ <item>
+ Open the message menu with the mouse or by
+ pressing Alt-M
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ Select the "get new mail" option (do not click it,
+ this will activate the function!). If you use the
+ mouse, just move the mouse cursor over the option.
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ Now you press Ctrl-M. You will immediately see the
+ new key combination appear on the menu.
+ </item>
</itemize>
+
+Congratulations, you have just changed a key binding.
+This way you can change all the options that you want.
+Do note that it is best to use just the alt, shift and
+ctrl key combinations. Several functions within Sylpheed
+are called up by one-key actions which are programmed in.
+
+<sect2>Predefined shortcuts
+<p>
+ You can also choose among predefined shortcuts lists,
+ from the preference settings. Open the <it>Common preferences</it>
+ window, choose the <it>Interface</it> tab, click the
+ <it>Set key bindings</it> button. Select one of the predefined
+ set of key bindings from the list found in the new window
+ that pops up.
</sect2>

+</sect1>
+
+<sect1>Changing Fonts on Menu, etc.
+
+<p>
+If you want to change the font that shows the menu of Sylpheed,
+this is controlled by the window manager that you are using.
+You have to go into the setup of the window manager (KDE, Gnome, XFCE)
+and change the font to your desired one.
+
+<p>
+Changing the font of the views of Sylpheed is done by selecting
+<tt>Common preferences</tt> in the Configuration menu. There you select
+the <tt>Display</tt> tab, and in the first section of the window you
+can browse the fonts available on your computer.
