Is it possible to assign two mnemonics or key combinations to one

Definitely the simplest would be using two menu items with the same
target/action. Also, it would have another advantage of advertising
the behaviour clearly to the user.
You can make two menu items with different mnemonics but the same
target/action, but then use Carbon functions to hide one of them while
still leaving its mnemonic active.
See "
http://cocoadev.com/index.pl?NSMenu"; for how to get a Carbon
reference to a Cocoa menu item, and <Menu.h> for the appropriate hiding
functions. I think there are two such functions, one that deactivates
the mnemonic, and one that doesn't.
