Thanks.  I'll try it in a minute.

Yes.  Also, note that all the keybindings break if CapsLock is on... ;-)  
Might be worth creating a new bug for those issues.

Title:
  Better keybindings for gschem "Select All" and "Deselect"

Status in GPL Electronic Design Automation tools:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  gschem keybindings can only have a single modifier.  It's therefore not
  possible to give the "Edit->Select All" and "Edit->Deselect" actions the
  de facto standard <Ctrl-A> and <Ctrl-Shift-A> keybindings respectively
  (see also bug 699794 and bug 698865).

  An alternative pair of keybindings for these two actions that makes
  sense needs to be found.

   affects: geda
   milestone: 1.7.0
   importance: low
   tag gschem usability
