AutoHotKey is a Windows application. AFAIK it doesn't have a Linux version.It would appear the hover and type a key sequence setting of hot keys has been deprecated in GTK3 which GnuCash now uses. See https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-list/2015-July/msg00026.html( and the linked follow up message.) AFAIK the current information for Gnome and GTK2 is given here https://developer.gnome.org/hig/stable/keyboard-input.html.en This gives you the system reserved shortcuts There is another wiki link re customising GnuCash in GTK3 https://code.gnucash.org/wiki/GTK3, The info under the Menu Keyboard Shortcuts heading (ignore the link to Keyboard SHortcuts though as it just gives info re the deprecated ability) and I tried follow the instructions for editing the accelerator-map file given there. I have tried setting a hot key for a File->Import->Import OFX as "<Alt><Shift>i" in /.gnucash/accelerator-map as described and it failed to work. I suspect the copy of the accelerator-map may only in the GnuCash user preferences for reference and it may be necessary to rebuild GnuCash with an altered source code accelerator-map in the source code to get this to function. Not terribly well documented in GTK3 but I found a reference in a LibreOffice GTK3 post which indicates this may be the case ( https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=97260 see Comment 14 by Simon Long (although that post refers specifically to shortcuts in dialogs). More developer input may be required. David Cousens On Wed, 2021-01-06 at 19:29 -0500, Peter wrote: > > I wish I understood what that page is > talking about.
