The big reason I use AutoHotkey is that I have lots of shortcut keys defined. A few of them just launch a program, but others do cool things like open Firefox to a new Gmail compose window. Things like that aren't possible in the default Windows menu (I don't think). Thus, I like to have all my custom shortcuts in one place. Then I don't accidentally over-write one. Thanks again for stopping by. I hope you find the site useful. Andrew Hi Ken,

Any program in your Start menu, or on your desktop, can be assigned a shortcut key by right-clicking on the icon -> properties -> shortcut key.
