Description
I can become a little Help with Options: /? or -? and -h or --help but don't know to use the Mouse to change the Text-Coding and can't easy select or choose the Code-Page without a Mouse!!! I think a Text-Editor should always prefer the Keyboard to make things easy and fast.
Why I've to use the mouse for the Status-Buttons and can't select that via Settings- or Edit-Menü?
Where is F1 - Inline Help to use of?
Where is F2 - to Rename the Project (FileName)
Where is F3 - to search and find
Can F4 used to select an-other coding-Page?
Where is F5 to have a Reload if the Text-File is Changed from an-other editor or Programm (if it is a log-file).
May F9 switch between [CRLF] and [LF] and did that also add a last [LF] at Save or is there an-other switch for?
A Help should talk not only talk about the version.
It also should tell us how to use the program itself - like that:
(it's from my german ZIM/Tiddler about edit - but I think you'll should see what )
Wie von früher gewohnt kann in EDIT das Menü über die 【⎇】ALT-Taste aufgerufen werden,
oder aber mit 〔F10〕 oder der Maus angeklickt werden:
【⎇】+〔F〕 = File : Datei
【⎇】+〔E〕 = Edit : Bearbeiten
【⎇】+〔V〕 = View : Ansicht
【⎇】+〔H〕 = Help : Hilfe
〔F11〕 schaltet das Terminal-Fenster in den Full-Screenmode, so das kein Fensterrand mehr zu sehen ist - oder zurück in den Fenstermodus.
Wenn das Menü erscheint kann man mit den Cursor-Tasten darin navigieren:
〔↓〕 Nächst unten liegenden Menü-Punkt auswählen oder am ende wieder den ersten.
〔↑〕 Nächst oben liegenden Menü-Punkt auswählen oder am ende wieder den letzen.
〔→〕 Wechsel zum rechten Menü: Von ... "File" → "Edit" → "View" → "Help" → "File" ...

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by narrowing the requested keyboard access, inline help, encoding selection, reload behavior, and line-ending controls into an agreed scope; the issue currently combines several independent features. Review the existing command-line help and terminal editor menus, then define done as a documented and testable decision for each included shortcut or action.
