Done. :)
Yep. Very nice :) I see you've added a dot after the Scope, not sure why, I wouldn't have, but... ;)

Anyways, there's a problem with having "SR Only" on a new line, at least for the export (Copy Shortcut Cheat Sheet) as it obviously breaks the whole thing (one line per shortcut/command)!

Other options would be possible, but I think the current way should suffice for now since it leaves all further formatting/output options to you.
I was agreeing that current way is fine for now, but was thinking that some of code/options in Report in FF might be usable here also.
Still spending WAY TOO much time here! But it's such a pleasure helping XY be a treasure!
(XP on laptop with touchpad and thus NO mouse!) Using latest beta vers when possible.

Yep, sure. And I removed the dot, too, it sucked :wink:

I changed the caption to Copy "Cheat Sheet".

Concerning the options: as always, if street pressure gets higher I'll rethink it. Currently I want to deliver the basic CKS tool. Later we'll see which refinements will improve it and which would just be bloat.

Code: Select all

    + CKS: Commands list got a little context menu where you can copy the 
      selected command to clipboard.
Yeah, but why do you there use "Key(s)" while on "Copy Cheet Sheet" you use "Shortcut(s)" ? Since both those refers to the same thing, wouldn't be better to use the same term everywhere ?

:) Definitely!

I even use three EDIT: four! versions within this interface, all referring to the same thing:
- key
- shortcut
- shortcut key
- keyboard shortcut

And I don't like either! :P

- key sounds like one key, not a combo
- shortcut has another meaning in Windows
- shortcut key is too long and a weird term
- keyboard shortcut is too long

hmmmmmmm... what now?

Yeah, and I think still that would be my choice.. I mean, we're talking Customizable Keyboard Shortcuts here ;), sure shortcut has also another meaning in Windows, but it is also the term used when it comes to.... shortcuts, as in keyboard shortcuts.
I don't think anyone would confuse the two, knowing they dealing with CKS, so on CKS you can drop the "Keyboard" and only use "Shortcut", IMO

Man, it was even four terms! (see my edit in previous port)

Yes, "shortcut" is probably the best.

Key combos?

It's a bit more relaxed, but it's short and certainly implies more than one. Shortcuts is good too, I just thought I'd throw this into the ring...
