compose hotkeys
f0dder:
Hey mouser, I wonder if you could add a little feature request?
On another forum, by accident I pressed Ctrl+B, and lo and behold - a <B></B> pair was inserted (of course with square brackets, but I dunno how to do square brackets in a post without it acting as bbcode). For longer posts, I compose my stuff in notepad++, but for shorter (and thus quick) posts, Ctrl+B, Ctrl+I and Ctrl+U shortcuts could be pretty decent... (also, if a selection is detected, wrap the selection in tags, just like the icons work currently).
app103:
Ctrl+B would conflict with my browser's hotkeys...that would open the window to manage my bookmarks.
None of the others conflict with mine, but they could conflict on some other browser.

True - that could be a problem. Imho you probably don't want to bookmark the "make new post" page after you've hit reply, but it's a problem for the quick-reply field. BUT... if the hotkeys could somehow be 'local' so they're only active when the quick-reply field has focus?
app103:
I see what you are saying, but wouldn't the application hotkeys over-ride that and open that window any way?
AbteriX:
no offense, but maybe this
AHK BBCodeWriter v7.0.2 - An offline BBCode Editor
is something from interest for some of you?
