ShortKeys
Shortkeys is a plugin for Hotkeycontrol which enables you to perform one of the actions in Hotkeycontrol by typing out a few keys rather than keeping a combination pressed - especially useful for running programs. Here is a simple configuration example.
For the configuration shown above, you can open yahoo.com (which is configured in Run 1) by pressing 0 on the number pad and then typing yah. Or you can open c:\windows\system32 folder by pressing 0 on the number pad and then typing sys. If you want to configure many files in Hotkeycontrol, Shortkeys allows you to run these programs without remembering their actual hotkeys.
