Keyboard shortcuts for base digit and wordsize changing

[superjamie]

When in Programming mode, gcalctool 5.28 allowed changing of base digits (bin, oct, dec, hex) with a keypress of Alt+{bodx). These corresponded with radio buttons underneath the number window.

There are also radio buttons for wordsize (64/32/16-bit) with shortcuts Alt+{631}.

In mate-calc 1.6.1 (and various other versions) the base digit selection has been changed to a dropdown with no keyboard shortcut. Wordsize is even further away in the Preferences menu.

Please consider adding Alt+{bodx) keyboard shortcuts to change base digits and wordsize. If you wished to revert to the radio buttons instead of the dropdown/Preferences, that would be ideal.

5 years later... I don't know since when, but there are shortcuts to change base digits. They are Shift+{bodh).
