Is there a list of keyboard shortcuts for ECL IDE?

If such list doesn't exist... would you mind sharing the shortcuts you already know.
So far I have some from the tutorials:

Specific
F7 = Check Syntax
F8 = Open file location in windows explorer
Ctrl + Enter = Submit
Ctrl + Q = Comment/uncomment block with //
Ctrl + Shift + Q = comment block with /*
Ctrl + L = Show/ hide line numbers

Standard
Ctrl + S = Save
Ctrl + O = Open
Ctrl + N = New File
Ctrl + F = Find
Ctrl + G = Go to line
Ctrl + H = Replace
Ctrl + C = Copy
Ctrl + X = Cut
Ctrl + V = Paste

No, there is not a summary list, but the ECL IDE and Client Tools PDF has complete documentation of all IDE features with their respective hot key values. You can also use the ribbon and popup menus in the IDE to display these hot keys.

Hello Jim

Thanks for your list!
Here is your ticket: https://track.hpccsystems.com/browse/IDE-570

Is there any short cut to compile code?

I already entered a Jira and resolved it

https://track.hpccsystems.com/browse/HPCC-16400

You will find the list in the next release of documentation.

As for a shortcut to compile code, you will have to submit a feature request. I think it is a good suggestion.
