General ⇒ Keyboard short cuts for common commands...

[jgassens]

Is there a way to add keyboard shortcuts ala *office?

I.e. If I wanted to bold something I could highlight the text and press ALT+B? Or superscript -- which would be way more sweet would just insert $^{crapthatIhighlighted}$ for me if I did ALT+Shift+=?

Thanks!

This falls in the domain of editors. Your editor of choice might already have such a facility or provide you a way to do it.

Well, true. I assumed that is was understood that my editor is TeXnicCenter. Unless I'm not understanding something....

You can add keyboard shortcuts for all the menu items under menu->tools->customize->Keyboard

Thanks! Now, is there anyway to edit those? I.E. if I want to do superscript in text mode I need $^{stuff}$ but the macros listed that do superscript only do it in math mode.

If I could edit them to insert the requisite $ that would be neat, too.

the only i know you can do is to define your own text by menu->insert->Own TextModules-> Manage TextModules,
you must asign a names as AAA that let it be the first in the list. Then you can assign it a keyboard short cut assigning it to Own TextModules . Unfortunately you only can assign a shortcut to the first itrm in the list and this will block the Manage TextModules command.

It seems kinda strange that you can't add shortcuts to custom TextModules.
