Help says that cmd-h on a Mac will take user to Home Page, but that key combi is
set to Hide the app. We need a keyboard shortcut to go to the Home Page, but we
also need the help file corrected.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select Help Contents from Help menu
2. Look through Keyboard Shortcuts for Home
3. Try it.
Actual Results:  
It hides the app instead of taking you back to Kansas

Expected Results:  
Take me Home (page), country roads.

This is a misprint in the Help file as well as being a requested feature

Cmd-H *should* hide the app, according to the Mac OS X GUI guidelines. See bug
74244 and bug 73812.

The documentation tells you to use Cmd-HOME, not H. That works for me in build
2004043008, even on an old iBook (where you have to press cmd-fn-left, because
the home key is on fn-left).

 My bad. I guess you can close bug # 231248 as well. Thanks for the illumination.
