Customizing key bindings
You can fully customize CotEditor's menu key bindings. Also, you can store text snippets which have your preferred key bindings assigned. By default, you can insert “<br />” (with a line ending) by pressing Shift-Return. To create your own key bindings:
- Choose CotEditor > Preferences.
- Click Key Bindings.
- Click Edit, and modify/add the key bindings as you like.
- Menu Key Bindings must include Command key.
- Additional Text Key Bindings must exclude Command key.
- You cannot set the key bindings that are already taken (e.g. shortcuts for your script files or menu items that don't appear in the Menu Key Bindings list).
