I see what you are saying, but wouldn't the application hotkeys over-ride that and open that window any way?

Not necessarily, and I just checked with the other forum, it works the way I described... so it's definitely doable!  :up:

no offense, but maybe this
AHK BBCodeWriter v7.0.2 - An offline BBCode Editor
is something from interest for some of you?

Why would anybody take offense at a good suggestion? :)

I still think the hotkeys would be a nice addition, but the BBCodeWriter might be a good idea for external posting, instead of Notepad++ (since np++ lacks those specific shortcuts etc.)

yes, some forums offer handy keyboard shortcuts.. even gmail has shortcuts for compose, reply & etc.. but since they (forums shortcuts) are not available everywhere, i have come to depend on BBCode, a fx extension which appear on the context-menu when the focus is on a textarea.. :)

Context menu is way too slow though, I'd have to reach out for my mouse (or use the context-menu shortcut key, but still having to wade through menus) - the idea of keyboard shortcuts is that they're very convenient and fast to use.

Still, thanks for pointing it out :)

np, f0dder. btw, i just found out that the BBCode site is not functioning. i was thinking of emailing the author with the hot-keys idea but now i guess it will have to go to the back-burner.. :o
