Redefine hotkeys (keyboard remapping): additonal letter as a hotkey

Post by *DrShark »

Currently TC allows to use up to 5 keys used in 1 keyboard shortcut:
Ctrl, Alt, Shift, Win, <other key>
I suggest, to add another <other key> for keyboard remapping, so 6 keys for 1 shortcut could be possible.
I doubt I will use a combination of all 6 keys together, but the reason I'm requesting this because then it will allow to use more convenient short key combinations, like Ctrl+Q+W.

Perhaps not pressed at the same time, but a multi-key combo would be nice, so you define the shortcut as:

Shortcut [Ctrl+Q]
Key [W]
delay [500ms]

So you press Ctrl+Q and you have half a second to press W to perform the action, if not, nothing happens or just W is "sent"

Similar to good old WordStar commands which had lots of these two letter combos http://www.wordstar.org/index.php/wsdos-documentation/wsdos-commands/108-wordstar-3-for-dos-commands-reference :)
