Why

Fire up menu shortcuts with your left hand only, so you can use the mouse at the same time. Easy to remember system for Cmd/Shift/Ctrl/Alt combinations together with letters, numbers, space, backspace, tab and escape.

How

Strike one of the modifier briefs explained below, then the lefthand letter or binary(!) number that should be triggered with those modifiers. ###Examples:

  • SKPWR/KR Shift+Cmd+c
  • SKHRA/R- Shift+Alt+Control+r
  • SH/34 Shift+3
  • THRA/14 Alt+9
  • KHR/SK Control+Escape ###Single modifiers:
  • KPWR Command
  • SH Shift
  • THRA Alt
  • KHR Control ###Shift/Alt/Control combinations:
  • SHA Shift+Alt
  • SKHR Shift+Control
  • KHRA Alt+Control
  • SKHRA Shift+Alt+Control ###Command key combinations:
  • SKPWR Cmd+Shift
  • KPWRA Cmd+Alt
  • KPWHR Cmd+Control
  • SKPWRA Cmd+Shift+Alt
  • SKPWHR Cmd+Shift+Control
  • KPWHRA Cmd+Alt+Control
  • SKPWHRA Cmd+Shift+Alt+Control All you have to remember is this: (S=Shift) + KPWR=Cmd + (A=Alt, H=Control) ###Special keys for the second stroke:
  • TPW Tab
  • SP Space
  • SPW Backspace
  • SK Escape ###Numbers for the second stroke: Binary system from right to left using number bar and STPH
  • #4: 1
  • `#3: 2
  • #34: 3
  • #2: 4
  • #24: 5
  • #23: 6
  • #234: 7
  • #1: 8
  • #14: 9
  • #1234: 0 (this would actually be 15, but easy to strike and remember) ###F-Keys Strike one of the modifier briefs explained below, then the lefthand binary(!) number of the F-key that should be triggered with those modifiers.

The system of the modifiers in short: (S=Shift, T=Control) + PWHR=F-Key + (A=Alt, O=Command)

The numbers are again as if the left hand numbers were binary (8, 4, 2, 1).

  • #4: 1
  • `#3: 2
  • #34: 3
  • #2: 4
  • #24: 5
  • #23: 6
  • #234: 7
  • #1: 8
  • #14: 9
  • #13: 10
  • #134: 11
  • #12: 12
  • #124: 13
  • #123: 14
  • #1234: 15

###Examples:

  • PWHR/13 F10
  • SPWHRO/1 Shift+Command+F8
