AliasKeys Description

AliasKeys - An application that assigns hotkeys for files and folders AliasKeys lets you assign keystrokes to open files and folders. Any item that the Finder can open may be dragged to the list of AliasKeys and assigned a combination of keys, to open it without touching your mouse. You can use AliasKeys for applications, documents, folders, aliases, preference panels, servers, scripts... even web pages!Hitting the keys opens the corresponding item, as would a double-click on its icon. AliasKeys is basically as simple as that; it is also extremely easy to set up.AliasKeys is fully unicode-aware and may be used on any localized system version or international keyboard.Here are some key features of "AliasKeys":· Create Any Number of Hotkeys - Do you miss Mac OS 9's capability to make use of function keys to launch applications or open documents? With AliasKeys you can do it again, and more!· Open Every Kind of Items - As did the old Apple menu, AliasKeys opens any object dragged in the list of hotkeys: applications, documents, folders, servers, scripts, and even URLs.· Powerful Keyboard Shortcuts - To avoid "collisions" with the applications' shortcuts, you can use any modifier keys such as option, shift, command or control. Assign keys to anything, including folders and Internet bookmarks!Limitations:· Full featured one moth trial period. What's New in This Release: Bug-fix release ensuring full Leopard compatibility. Fixed problems: · Entering the keys in the list was only possible from the keyboard (by hitting the return key) or from the menu; double-clicking the shortcut now works as before. · The date/time auto-typing feature was broken on certain keyboard layouts. A new method is now used to work around any dependency. · Moving the mouse while waiting for a keypress could cause weird things to happen in the list. Now the wait can be stopped by clicking anywhere, as before. · A lot of small things have been optimized for smoother and faster operation. Known problems: · After changing a key shortcut on a Mac running Leopard, you may have to wait a few seconds until the system takes into account the new set of shortcuts. · The shortcuts based on keys F17, F18, F19 (or more) are not displayed correctly in the list, however they are fully usable as any other.
