Anyone know the keyboard shortcut to copy/paste a line into a new line in Eclipse, without having to highlight the entire line?

ctrl-alt-down turns my whole screen upside down (I'm on windows). Interestingly, that's what's specified in the windows->preferences.

Ctrl-Alt-Down: copies current line or selected lines to below

Ctrl-Alt-Up:: copies current line or selected lines to above

Ctrl-Shift-L: brings up a List of shortcut keys

See Windows/Preference->General->Keys.
