+Shortcuts keys are written as the literral keyboard key value. Combinations are made with `_` separator. Chained shortcuts are made with `-` separator.
+
+Modifiers are also available:
+- `meta`: acts as `Command` for MacOS and `Control` for others
+- `ctrl`: acts as `Control`
+- `shift`: acts as `Shift` and is only necessary for alphabetic keys
+
+Examples of keys:
+- `escape`: will trigger by hitting `Esc`
+- `meta_k`: will trigger by hitting `⌘` and `K` at the same time on MacOS, and `Ctrl` and `K` on Windows and Linux
+- `ctrl_k`: will trigger by hitting `Ctrl` and `K` at the same time on MacOS, Windows and Linux
+- `shift_e`: will trigger by hitting `Shift` and `E` at the same time on MacOS, Windows and Linux
+- `?`: will trigger by hitting `?` on some keyboard layouts, or for example `Shift` and `/`, which results in `?` on US Mac keyboards
+- `g-d`: will trigger by hitting `g` then `d` with a maximum delay of 800ms by default
