Nice Work!
The only problem I have with the list is that all lower case is almost as hard to read as all CAPS.

Most, if not all, of those will work in any version of Win 9x (I am including ME in that because ME is just a glorified Win98 - in fact, my setup BIOS list it as 98!)

Nice research on the shortcuts; it must have taken quite a while to collect them.
Thanks for sharing.
Have a Good Day,
DN
