[QUOTE="Kokopelli, post: 97755"] There is no way that I know of to do it from the OS, but there are programs that will allow you to do it. [URL=http://macupdate.com/info.php/id/14831]QuickSilver[/URL] will allow you to do exactly what you want using triggers. (I am such a prostitute. EDIT: I used a different word but evidently it is considered swearing by the filter. It rhymes with war. ) I use <CTRL><CMD>c to launch Camino as an example. <CTRL><CMD>v to launch voodoopad. Various combinations using the arrow keys to control iTunes. So on and so forth. There are other programs that will allow you to do it though I can not come up with them off the top of my head. Launchbar and/or Butler can do it I think. A little searching on MacUpdate brought up [URL=http://macupdate.com/info.php/id/11688]Global HotKey[/URL], [URL=http://macupdate.com/info.php/id/13410]FunKeys[/URL] , [URL=http://macupdate.com/info.php/id/10499]Gestures[/URL] , and [URL=http://macupdate.com/info.php/id/6746]iKey[/URL] . You could try one of those. [/QUOTE]
