Instant Message shortcut?

Currently, AjaxLife uses the same shortcut as Second Life for instant messages – Ctrl-T. However, this is also used by most browsers to create a new tab, and is thus really annoying (I want a new tab, not an IM window!)

So, does anyone have any suggestions for alternate key bindings to use instead?

    I suggest ALT+F+X

    Why Alt-F-X?

    Are ALT-M or ALT-C bound to anything?

    ALT-M: M for Messaging
    ALT-C: C for Communicate

    Not sure if these are already bound to something.

    No alt-anythings are bound. They’re all on ctrl. :P

    Ctrl-M is used for the map, Ctrl-C is copy.

    How about Ctrl and I (I for Instant Message) I don’t think I does anything atm.

    Ctrl-I toggles the inventory window.

    Ctrl O(bjects) for inventory, and Ctrl I(M).

    I’d rather not change anything other than the IM window’s shortcut.
