Sorry everybody,
yes, this is no question for the developer list - but as I'm not subscribed to any user forum, maybe somebody could drop me a quick line.
How can I change any node to a corner node, not using the menu, but with a keyboard shortcut or a <key>-click combination?
Thanks and greetings,
Wolf

From the "Keys and Mouse Reference' (second entry the 'Help' menu):

Change node type
Shift+C make cusp First Shift+C changes type of node; if you do another Shift+C on an already cusp node, it retracts its handles
Shift+S make smooth If a cusp node is adjacent to a line segment, first Shift+S makes it half-smooth with one handle collinear with the segment; another Shift+S will expand a second handle
Shift+Y make symmetric When making smooth or symmetric, you can lock the position of one of the handles by hovering mouse over it.
Shift+A make auto
Ctrl+click toggle smooth/cusp/symmetric/auto

Wow - I never knew how useful help files can be. (((-; Thanks for pointing me to that!
