[feature request] Caps lock or semicolon as hotkey choice
« on: January 30, 2008, 07:59 PM »
some might want to use caps lock as hotkey if he doesn't use caps lock much. If caps lock is set as hotkey, he can

  • Press caps lock to toggle FARR
  • Press caps lock twice to toggle caps lock. * (feature request)

If he set semicolon as hotkey, he can

  • Press semicolon to toggle FARR
  • Press semicolon twice to type a semicolon in a document. *
  • Press semicolon and space to type a semicolon followed by a space. *
  • Press semicolon and return key to type a semicolon followed by a newline. *

* : feature request.

Can this be done with a plugin?

Semicolon is one thing I miss from Keybreeze.

It was with this kind of hotkeys in mind that mouser created TapTap :D

If you want to trigger FARR with the CapsLock key, I suggest you use the SharpKeys utility; it will remap the CapsLock key to some other normal hotkey you can catch with FARR, and it's a great tool.
