keyboard-shortcuts

I try to execute a command in some plugin by pushing it's keyboard shortcut F2 . But some other command is executed, instead. But that command gives an error. So it is not clear where the key mapping of that interfering command is defined. I want to change the mapping of that shortcut. To do this I need to find out what that interfering command is. Is there a way to find out which command is triggered by some keyboard shortcut? verbose map <F2> will give you information about both {rhs} and place where this mapping was defined. For insert mode mappings replace map with imap , same for other

I am developing an app for Mac OS X and I need to listen to keyboard shortcut inputs so I can act on them. For example: Up and down keys move up and down on a table view. ⌘ + ⌦ drops an item. ⌘ + ⇧ + N creates a new item. It shouldn't be restricted to events on the focused control. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. Have a look at the Cocoa Event-Handling Guide . There are a few places you can intercept events before they get to the key view. You can intercept all events in the application by overriding -[NSApplication sendEvent:] , or you can intercept events at a per-window level by overriding -
