Hi to all,
i've got more or less the same problem here. I am trying to define a
hotkey which should replace one value by another in a text-editor
(notepad, psdad, winword and others. But i can't get my *keys-command
to work. It seems that marking characters with {shift} or + doesn't
work. I tried several combinations. For example:
{shift}{end}{shift} works like {end} only
{shift}{right}{shift} works like {right} only
I also tried with +{end} and +{right} without success.
I also tried sending the *keys-command from a small topmost bar to
avoid key-handling-problems.
I also tried different applications.
Any help much appreciated.
regards
