Use control to delete faster!

Ctrl-Backspace will delete the entire word to the left of your cursor in one keystroke, and Ctrl-Delete will delete the entire word to the right of the cursor. I was surprised to find that this works across all text editors/composers in linux!

For example, if I am typing a email within opera, I can use this trick to make fast edits.....in fact I can do this within blogger too...as I am editing this post..
