There are a couple things that I would like to do easier. For one, I don't
have an applications key on my keyboard, and you have to hold the FN key
along with Shift+F10 to bring one up. It's so much easier to just hit
control+shift+A. Also, you never know when you will need to take a quick
note, to be able to launch Notepad from anywhere in Windows without having
to go to run and type in Notepad would be amazing! With these scripts, use
control+shift+/ (slash), These scripts allow you to do both of these things.
The zip file contains two text files. They are named as so you will know
what to do with them. Copy and paste the contents into your default.jss and
default.jkm Script files. Respectfully, To launch script manager use
insert+0, then you may use control+shift+D to open default.jss or hit your
file menu to open your default file. Hit control end, and make sure you are
on a blank line, after the last "end script" line and paste the contents of
the file relating to default.jss. Hit control+S to save and compile. You
willthen launch default.jkm. You can hit control+O to open, then tab down to
files of type and kit k, for key map, then shift+tab three times and type
default, which should land you on default.jkm. Then, put the contents
related to default.jkm under the common keys section, again making sure you
are on a blank line. Hit control+S to save. Then alt+F4.

Again the keystrokes once scripts are instaled.

Applications key: control+shift+a

Launch Notepad with: Control+Shift+/ (Slash)

I hope this makes your life simpler. Download the zip below.
