The new shortcut descriptions have been created by Victor Figueiredo, a fellow Ke圜ue user, who shares his set with the Ke圜ue community free of charge. Ke圜ue merges the additional shortcut descriptions with the shortcuts found in the menus to show the most comprehensive keyboard shortcuts cheat sheet ever. Starting with version 6, Ke圜ue supports user-definable custom shortcut descriptions to reveal these hidden commands. However, many applications offer further hidden shortcuts that are listed only in help documents or printed manuals. Previously, the application shortcuts shown by Ke圜ue were limited to those that appear in menus. Whenever the command key is kept pressed for a while, Ke圜ue displays a table with all keyboard shortcuts available in the currently active application. Ke圜ue is a handy tool for learning and remembering keyboard shortcuts.

The descriptions can be imported in Ke圜ue 6 to reveal 189 hidden keyboard shortcuts in Pro Tools. Hagenberg, Austria – Ergonis Software today published extended shortcut descriptions for Avid Technology’s Pro Tools.
