Shortcut
Up and coming: shot check knows this class and its members today, and programs run it once the native runtime lands.
Up and coming
Bind a key chord such as Ctrl+Enter, Ctrl+Shift+F or F5 to an action, scoped to where the keyboard is.
Under a Window a Shortcut works anywhere in it; under a UIObject, only while keyboard focus is inside it. A chord without Ctrl or Alt never fires while you type in a TextBox, unless AllowInTextBox is set. A MenuItem whose Shortcut is this one shows its keys and is activated by them, so a menu entry and its keys are one route.
Made with Instance.new("Shortcut") or Clone().
