FrKeys XP

4 Keyboard shortcuts

4.3 The Edit Keyboard Shortcuts window

This window allows you to see what keyboard shortcuts are defined, and to add, modify and delete keyboard shortcuts.

To display the Edit Keyboard Shortcuts window, select ‘Edit keyboard shortcuts…’ from the FrKeys menu.

The Edit Keyboard Shortcuts window contains the following elements:

Key/Character list

This shows all the keyboard shortcuts that are currently defined. It is empty if no keys have been associated with characters yet.

Pressing Shift gives capital letter

To save adding keyboard shortcuts for both lower case and capital letters (for example, Ctrl+E for ‘é’ and Shift+Ctrl+E for ‘É’), FrKeys can automatically give you the capital letter when you press Shift. If you want this to happen, tick this box. Some languages (such as Persian and Hindi) do not have capital letters; for these languages it may be more useful to turn this option off.

Delete
