I have several installs of the game and editor, each in separate folders. When I use Dromed in one folder, alt+g takes me to game mode and alt+e takes me back to the editor. However, when I use the editor in a different folder, alt+g will not work but alt+e will. Same goes for CTRL+S and a few others. I always have to click on the menu bar and invoke the via the mouse.
I checked and even copied over the KEYBIND.CFG file but it still doesn't work. Any ideas?
FYI, some folders have 1.19, others have 1.21. They're merely missions I've done in the past that I keep unzipped and use for reference purposes.

When this happened to me I noticed that all of the words/definitions were on the same line as in one long continuous line. I fixed mine by making sure each definition was on a seperate line and there was a blank line at the end.

That's not the problem. And it still doesn't explain why it works in one install folder and not the other.

Try copying default.bnd.

That sounds like a NewDark problem related to your .bnd file and menus.cfg(?). I had the same problem with the alt+g thing and had to add it into my file. I can't remember if it was a problem with NewDark's zip package itself or if it was from downloading AM16's dromed basic package.

I followed R Soul's advice and it worked. Comparing the two different DEFAULT.BND files, I think this is the problem:
* edit bind p+ctrl+shift "run optimise.cmd"
as opposed to
edit bind p+ctrl+shift "run .\cmds\optimise.cmd"
I never noticed that TafferPatcher now puts all of the CMD files in its own directory. So, some of my installs have a CMD folder and others do not.

Ah yes, that happened with me as well. Didn't think about that. But the alt+g is separate from the CMD issue, it' was just completely missing from the file, right?

Actually I also had the same problem except my cmd files were just missing. No cmd folder and never used TafferPatcher.
