If you've ever taken a look at the C5EDT.INI or C55EDT.INI files in your CLARION\BIN directory, you might have seen that the keyboard shortcuts are fully configurable (nice job, SV!). If you've taken a closer look you might also have seen that there are functions that are not accessible via the editor menu (I don't know if these are even undocumented, at least I couldn't find them documented anywhere).

CwKeys lets you view and / or change the keyboard shortcuts simply by pressing the desired key combination! This works for both Clarion5, 5.5 and 6. Up to two shortcuts per function are supported.

How it works:

At startup, CwKeys reads in the keycodes.clw file to be able to translate the numeric keycodes into human readable names ("LeftKey" instead of "37"). This is done automatically, except if your Clarion root dir cannot be found (read from the win.ini file).

Then you can open an editor configuration file by choosing "File" -> "Open" from the menu. During opening of the file the existing entries are validated against your keycodes.clw file. Don't panic if you'll get error messages! The default ini file that ships with Clarion contains invalid keycodes which will be removed during load.

Then you can browse the list of shortcuts, modifying those you'd like to. After that, simply save the changes and restart Clarion! Enough for now, simply check it out!
