Shouldn't the program auto-key U & P for date/time & location, not C & P?
U is the default key for date/time.

Click here:Movement & Interaction Guide to see the default keyboard layout.

Anyone can easily change it from U to C, but the program would be more compatible with a majority of the EU users if it was U & P.

Also, as an alternative, if there was an option to set your own keyboard preferences for the AutoScreen program instead. Maybe in a future update, perhaps?

Still, it's a very handy and excellent program, and this is just a minor issue, but I thought I'd just throw that out there. Thanks.
As others have already said, it used to be that C was the default key for displaying the time. The defaults were all changed at some time point last year. It was when they introduced keys for rotating your avatar - one of which is C, I think, so they had to change the time key to something else. If I remember correctly this was introduced at the same time as PVP4, so what's that, something like April 2007? Those of us who started playing before that have a different key setup, unless they edited the defaults.

"C&P" seems to have become a common EU phrase too - if I'm talking about a globals screenshot event on EF, for example, I might say to someone "remember to C&P it", meaning that you have to have a timestamp and position in your screenshot for it to be valid.
