Hi

one alternative subject could be "because it is Friday"...

I am using org-mode and ess regularly, and I use quite a few keyboard
shortcuts, but each time I read about a new one, I am wondering: why
the heck these specific (default!) keyboard shortcuts?

I am not asking why keyboard sequence, but e.g. why "export" in org is
C-c e and why tangle is C-c C-v t, and so on.

In other words: I am trying to *understand* why C-c and not C-o,
because I have tremendous problems to remember the shortcuts - if I
would know that there is s tree structure, where each following key
narrows it down to further *thematically linked* commands, it would
make it easier to learn these.

Any insight into this? Or is there a emacs function which returns a
random keyboard shortcut for a given function (some emacs shortcuts
really seem to be that way...).

Thanks,

Rainer
