### Menu Information

All of the main (non-dynamic) menu items can be customized with their own hot-keys. To do this, go to the one you want to change (selected it, but dont click) and press Backspace or Delete. This will clear the current hot-key. Then press the key combination that you want it to use. This will be save in a configuration file by Gtk+, and will be used until you change it again.
