Just one minor thing: you should wrap keycodes in kbd tags, like <kbd>ESC</kbd>

Oh so that's what was meant by wrapping keys in the changelog. Didn't know it actually means keycodes. My bad.

While you are on it, could you do that here? ESC?

Will do, no worries. Are both branches maintable-beta & javafxGlobalEverything equivalent or should I choose one over the other? |

Please do not add @author tags even if the exercise sheet requested it.

Should I then push a new commit with the author tag removed or should I do that in the new pull request which would be based on the branch javafxGlobalEverything?

Just remove it on this PR. Then, this PR is ready for merge.
Please create a new branch based on javafxGlobalEverything. I think, the implementation will differ much, so you can start from scratch? 😇

Of course, no problem 😃 I'm actually enjoying this myself and am learning a lot about developing larger-scale open-source projects so starting from scratch sounds fun 😄.

The / got lost at this quick fix. Note that the closing XML element is </kbd>.

@mohamean I just merged the globalEveryThing branch into "maintable-beta" thus you can now use the latter as the base. |
Fixes: JabRef#293
Allows the user to clear the search field by pressing the escape key. As requested as well, the first entry in the table is automatically selected afterwards, if such an entry exists.
