you can use single codes for multiple commands, you can use a “;” to seperate commands. If this doesn’t work, go to the options panel> advanced tab, and change the settings over there.

This does not work at all with Synery, the mouse and keyboard sharing app. I would love if it did.

I just use Launchy, http://www.launchy.net/ free and works great to lunch any app or find any file on Windows… just like QuickSilver does on the Mac for all these years.

Not familiar with textr, but any application that also hooks any of the keys that ControlPad uses, will naturally collide with it and cause one or the other to not function properly.
If there is a source available for textr, I can take a look see if I can do something in my code to avoid this.
Until then, you may use Laptop mode, which makes F12 the launch key.

Also, there might be a problem when running other AutoHotKey coded programs. I have textr running too. (LifeHacker) and while its running, the (*) key doesnt call up the input panel.

U know what else is awesome and wasnt mentioned in the review? The fact that you can not only use numbers, but letters too. I prefer the letters as a shortcut because letter have meaning. Good Job Sector Seven, a definite keeper

Hey guys,

Thanks for this post.
Charax – your two commands in one code should be easy to implement. I think I can do it for the next release.

As for more extensive documentation – I thought nobody reads help files anymore…

I’ve been playing around with this today after seeing it on gHacks, and while it’s a very handy program (I’m using it as an app launcher on my thumb drive) it lacks a couple of features I’d like:
1) single codes for multiple commands. Rather than typing in 1+2 to open Firefox and Winamp, I want to be able to tell the config file that 1 opens both Firefox and Winamp together.

2) More comprehensive documentation. It was only through some messing around that I found out Relative program paths worked (whic is useful for the portable version, where drive letters may change)

and you use it all the time in mobile phones, calculators etc.

Except, you know, it’s not. The keypad is upside down on phones.

What can I say, it’s a snarky Monday morning. Interesting application, though. I’ll have to give it a try.
