Are there any shortcuts for a quick save?

Question

Is there any shortcut for a quick save in StarCraft II?

I remember that it always was in Blizzard's strategies but I can't find it in SC2.

@Raven Dreamer, no I'm looking for something I can trigger manually but without going to Menu -> Save...

As of Patch 1.1, Quicksave functionality has been added to starcraft 2.

Ctrl + Q will save the game.

As far as I can tell from searching and checking the hotkey options there is not key for this, however a quick key combination to save game would be:

F10-S-Enter

That brings up Menu, selects Save, and Enter submits the save file with the default chosen name and returns you to the game.

	I've checked hotkey option as well and was aware of `F10`, `S`, `Enter`... Just as quite regular action I thought it would make sense to have a dedicated shortcut for that... – Regent Aug 16 '10 at 7:49
	I guess they decided it's not really needed, kind of like how Mac OS doesn't use 'Apply' buttons like Windows does, they just designed it in such a way that it's not really necessary though people might feel like they want it at first because they are used to it, ya know? – ioSamurai Aug 16 '10 at 12:47
	yeah, I guess, they've done similar with the traditional "Exit Program" menu item -- now you have to use standard Windows' `Alt+F4` shortcut. – Regent Aug 16 '10 at 22:28
