Description Jeremy Bicha 2012-08-19 10:58:25 UTC 
In many apps (including Evince and the Chromium and Firefox web browsers), pressing CTRL+= zooms in. Otherwise, since my laptop doesn't have a separate number pad, I'd be forced to use CTRL+SHIFT+= as the "zoom in" keyboard shortcut. As far as I know, CTRL+= isn't being used for anything else.

CTRL+= doesn't work in Terminal or Gedit (with gedit-plugins installed and the text size plugin enabled).

I'm using the en_US keyboard layout.

Up to the apps to install suitable shortcuts.
