Frequently asked questions
Is Shortcut Recorder an application or utility?No. It is a developer component that can be used in other applications or utilities. What does Shortcut Recorder do?Shortcut Recorder is a user interface field using which people can enter keyboard combinations (or, recently, also bare keys). It's implemented as a Cocoa NSControl backed by an NSCell. (Even so, it's currently not supported for use in an NSMatrix or NSTableView.) Is it available for Carbon?Shortcut Recorder works across the Carbon-Cocoa interoperability magic, and there are functions to convert the keyboard combination flags from Cocoa-style to Carbon-style and the other way around. There's not currently a Carbon implementation of the Shortcut Recorder control. Does it also register hot keys for me?The Shortcut Recorder control by itself just allows you to enter keyboard combinations; however, it is easy to given this register hot keys, either via Carbon functions or solutions like the open source PTHotKey, bundled with the example project. Where is Shortcut Recorder used today?In applications like Adium, CoverSutra, FontExplorer X, Mouseposé, ThisService, Voice Candy and OmniFocus. Is it free? Is it freely available?Shortcut Recorder is available under the BSD license. The gist of the BSD license is that you can do whatever you want with it as long as proper credit is given somewhere. Shortcut Recorder is free to use. Donations are accepted and appreciated. |

GimmeSomeTune? (www.gimmesometune.com) also uses ShortcutRecorder?.
Neat!
Transcriva 2 ( bartastechnologies.com/transcriva ) uses ShortcutRecorder? as well. Thanks for the hard work!
Folks;
I've downloaded the souce from the svn. I've successfully built the .framework and the .plugin. (I've added the .framwork to the project) When I try and add the .plugin to IB3 it tells me the bundle's executable could not be located...
So what am I doing wrong?
Thanks for what I hope will be a really useful addition to my app!! Steve
I have the same issue as steve.d.cronin
same thing, .ibplugin fails to install
Just add the framework in /Library/Frameworks and your IB plugin will load
TimeBoxed, from MacMation - www.macmation.com also uses this plugin. Thank you for this sweet source code.
