h2. Override built-in shortcuts

*As of 2.9 shortcuts can be changed in [[Options Dialog|Options]] -> [[Shortcuts Options|Shortcuts]].*

Starting with version 1.9.6, you can use the scripting event [[on KEYDOWN]] to override most of the built-in shortcuts.

Not all functions have a [[Scripting Commands|command]], feel free to "request":https://dev.adiirc.com/projects/adiirc/issues/new one if you need it.

Can also be used to create new shortcuts.

*Example*

<pre>

; Setup a keydown keyval for character 'r', you can retrieve the keyval value from the $keyval identifier.

on *:KEYDOWN:*:114:{

  ; Check if control key is pressed using bitwise comparison

  ; Control = 2

  ; Shift = 4

  ; Alt = 8

  if ($mouse.key & 2) {

    ; Echo the shortcuts was pressed

    echo -ag Ctrl + R was pressed

    ; Halt any AdiIRC shortcuts

    halt

  }

}

; Getting a keyval for a key.

on *:KEYDOWN:*:*:{ echo -ag keyval for $keychar is $keyval }

</pre>

h2. Creating new shortcuts

*As of 2.9 new shortcuts can be added in [[Options Dialog|Options]] -> [[Shortcuts Options|Shortcuts]].*

New shortcuts can be created using the alias syntax and the F-keys.

F1-12 and any combination using alt/shift/control is allowed.

a - Alt.

s - Shift.

c - Control

*Example*

<pre>

alias aF3 {

  echo -ag I pressed ALT + F3

}

alias sF3 {

  echo -ag I pressed SHIFT + F3

}

alias cF3 {

  echo -ag I pressed CTRL + F3

}

alias caF3 {

  echo -ag I pressed CTRL + ALT + F3

}

</pre>
