This is the wiki for the PhoenixKeyboard Library, a library for windows developers to handle hotkeys in a simple and general way, using delphi.
Well, thats easy to say. One day, i worked on a small tool for my own needs and get a bit angry about hotkeys and the way, you've to deal with them (in this case VCL). Putting Shortcuts on several UI elements let you lose the overview very fast. At the other hand, some of them aren't very intuitive for the enduser. This way, the idea was born, to make a library, that deals with this issus.
The main goal of the librarys
- simple handling
- global within a application
- flexible action handling
- multiple keystrokes per hotkey (e.g. "ALT+F S")
