Answer 1

From the menu it's under settings->editor->keyboard shortcuts (might need to scroll down). Configure whatever shortcut keys you need on the right-hand side.

@EdwardBird which version of C::B are you using? Can you go under Manage plugins and see if "Keyboard shortcuts" plugin is installed? – Microorganism

sudo apt-get install codeblocks-contrib ... Why didn't I know about this before? – Masorete

Answer 2

1. Open CodeBlocks
2. Click on Settings
3. Go to Editor

• Refer to these 3 screenshots

4. That opens Configure editor
5. There select the Keyboard shortcuts
6. In commands select Edit

7. Scroll down and find the comment
8. There you can customize your keyboard shortcut and click on add

9. don't forget to click on ok.

There all the keyboard shortcuts are available and you can play with them.
