Keyboard Shortcuts

[Todd Wirth]

For shortcuts in KDE, goto the Menu Editor (under System?) find the application you want a shortcut to.  Select it, and look on the bottom right side, there is a shortcut setup key. Click the button, and set your sequence.

Not sure about 8.1 but in 8.1 keyboard shortcuts for all of kde can be configured through, k then configuration then KDE then LookNFeel then shortcuts. Also you should be able to run the rpm as an upgrade with the -u flag, but double check with the man page

	In Windows land, I have "hot keys" set up for specific functions. 
For example Ctl+Shft+N opens Notepad, Ctrl+Shift+W opens Wordpad, 
Ctrl+Shift+D opens the directory containing all my documents, 
Ctrl+Shift+I launches my dial up internet connection .... You get the 
idea. These work no matter what I'm doing, and were accomplished by 
creating a shortcut to the application or directory, then entering 
the hot key sequence in its Properties. 

	In linux, apparently these are called key bindings, but from what I 
gather from Help, these are all application specific. What I would 
like to do is: Ctrl+Shift+N open Advanced Editor, Ctrl+Shift+W open 
Kword, Ctrl+Shift+H open my home directory in Konqueror. 

Is there a way to accomplish this in Mandrake 8.1 with KDE ?
