A collection of useful shortcuts that I use. These are optimized for QWERTY. Versions available for AutoHotKey (Windows) and AutoKey (Linux).
To use these you need to have AutoHotKey installed on your compute. When installed, download the autohotkey/alt-hotkey.ahk file and open it.
To use these you need to install AutoKey on your system.
Then, either download autokey/generated.zip and unzip and import into AutoKey or use the autokey/autokey-generate.py script to generate the AutoKey files for you:
python3 autokey-generate.py <output_dir>
To use these on macOS, you'll need to install Karabiner. Use the config provided in the karabiner folder to overwrite ~/.config/karabiner/karabiner.json.
ℹ️ Most of these can be used with Shirt and Ctrl to select and jump words.
