I am sure every1 know this and somehow i am the only one that missed this in the guide (that i did not read hehe!)

But if you hold shift and press the backspace key it works like a del key on a PC.

Ok so nothing major but handy sometimes

will this kill 9210 literally? U mean this will reboot and format 9210? 😃

Ah the delights of legacy code from the SIBO Series 3 developers. This trick (and a few others) are so entrenched in certain Symbina codes minds, that they were slipped in to ER6, even though they were never part of the design spec. I think ctrl-esc has the same effect on early builds.

Must dig out my list of undocumented shortcuts...

I use Restart from PSILoc: it's free and kills all progs and restarts 9210.
But only to kill some/all programs don't use the utility from PSILOc -its memory intensive! I use ISwitcher - it's 48 KB only

Hello,

Where can I find, try, buy and/or see this ISwitcher application?

Thanks
