Kiwix access key translations

Has this been documented somewhere?

Propably not. The smart software producers make the access keys (or hotkeys) automatically. I worked for one of the largest software companies in the world (not MS) and they had their own little piece of programming doing just that job (btw so does the biggest one, that is Microsoft). This is basically something that the developers should solve: an automated assignment of unique access keys in one screen. If they want to do it by translators, then I bow humbly and deeply and thank them and hand my bill - because withouth hard cash (probaply close to 4 figured euro sum) I'm not doing this kind of job. It is an endless job: one developer changes one word and x translators in x languages have to change the translation of one letter - get a life, even for open source software translation this is a total waste of resources. Is someone playing a bad joke on me? I hope not.

@Nedergard Interesting, I have open a feature request https://sourceforge.net/p/kiwix/feature-requests/476/ but I must admit that I have not clue what type of rules should be implemented in such a software.
