Suggestions about Redefine hotkeys: show the command Nr.

[sky66]

Yesterday, I spent some time trying to figure out what command a certain hotkey stands for.
In the end, I didn't find it, but I found it by searching for some keywords on the forum.
I also had to check if the new hotkey was already used by a default command.

My suggestion is that, maybe not now but in the next version, when Redefine hotkeys, it could show the command Nr.
Thanks.

For example, if the hotkey is set to Ctrl + PGDN, it currently shows:
Command: "Default command (no remapping)"

It could be changed to:
Command: "Default command 2003 (no remapping)"
Or an option that doesn't affect the translation:
Command: "2003 - Default command (no remapping)"

If the hotkey is not used by any default command, it would stay as:
"Default command (no remapping)"

Maybe a lot of work of implementtion(?), but:

Internal hotkeys are not assigned 1:1 to commands. The actual hotkey support is much broader than documented. For example, the official hotkey to open the left drive list is Alt+F1. However, only the Alt (must be pressed) and Ctrl (must not be pressed) modifiers are checked, Shift and Win keys are ignored. This has the advantage that people can use for example Alt+Shift+F1 when Alt+F1 doesn't work, like on Linux (with Wine) where Alt+F1 is already assigned system-wide.

Therefore it's unfortunately not possible to show what the current default is.

Are there any 1:1 assignments to show?

To be honest - the explanation is completely blurred and unclear.
Inside the Total code you still have to somehow maintain that user choice by hotkeys and command accustomed to them,
so they can be used. Including the default ones. I.e. the code basically knows ALL the variants of the link `hotkey=command`.
So why can’t these bundles be taken anywhere on forms?

As I wrote, a lot of work, but very (, very!) useful for the users (and also - maybe - for you, for documentation purposes).

It also doesn't have to be completely comprehensive and cover everything. (Although that might be a problem with the current regulars at the forum )

In any case, I have missed it quite a few times.

As the OP wrote, maybe you think about it for a version in the future.

It shouldn't be too difficult for the normal hotkeys, right?
