[Rsgames-beta] Scrabble Keyboard Shortcuts Idea

I have some keyboard shortcut ideas for Scrabble. These are just suggestions
and should be regarded as such.
Ctrl+p - place a letter. You press ctrl+p, and you are asked which letter
you want to place. So if you have an a and you know it, you can just type
ctrl+p followed by an a. A blank could be represented by the spacebar, and
if you choose a letter you don't have, you could either get a beep or an
error message.
Ctrl+t - end turn. That way you don't need to move through all your letters
to end your turn.
I would like to see something similar in Go Fish, where you would press
ctrl+a to ask another player for a card. If you have three aces, it gets a
little tedious.
These inconveniences are minor, to be sure, but I think these keyboard
shortcuts would be welcome.
Also, in Battleship, it would be nice if you could either position your next
torpedo while you wait for the other player, or else if you weren't allowed
to navigate the board at all unless it's your turn. I've often wound up
torpedoing the wrong square because I started moving half a second before it
was my turn. Finally in Battleship, if you press ctrl+w to have an ad sent
to you, you come back at the bottom left of the grid. This should, if
possible, be fixed. Thanks so much.
