A minimalistic tool for defining global shortcuts for Windows. It doesn't need installation, is configured in a text file, has no GUI and can be easily turned on and off.
ShortcutRunner consists of two files:
ShortcutRunner.exeshortcuts.txt
Define your shortcuts in shortcuts.txt file:
Ctrl + Win + H -> mshta javascript:alert("Hello world!");close();
Now run ShortcutRunner.exe. When you click Ctrl + Win + H, a greeting message will appear.
To close ShorcutRunner, right-click on its tray icon and select "Exit ShortcutRunner".
Lines starting with # or empty lines will be ignored. Shortcut is defined as follows:
# Opens up downloads folder.
Ctrl + Win + H -> explorer %userprofile%\Downloads
Left-hand-side of the arrow describes shortcut. Valid shortcut can contain multuple modifier keys (Ctrl, Alt, Shift or Win) and must contain exactly one non-modifier key (e. g. H). Full list of keys can be found here.
Right-hand-side of the arrow is a command. Command is sent do cmd.exe when shortcut is triggered, so it can do pretty much everything.
ShortcutRunner requires .NET Framework 4.5.
