Hi. I have created my own command for this space with J. You can create keyboard commands on the display, however, they can only be for VoiceOver specific keyboard commands. For example, VO plus J works fine, but command Q, which is an OSX command, will not work. Apparently there is some kind of Apple scripting way of doing this, but I don't know how. SO in short, yes, you can program your display to use specific functions related to VoiceOver, but not any keyboard command that is generalized to the Mac. You'll find that some keyboard commands on the Mac already have a braille equivalent, such as space with 2-3-6 to interact with items and space with 3-5-6 to stop interacting.
