FastKeys Forum

I am using a Stream Deck from Elgato. It's basically a macro keypad. Are there any plans for the future to launch a shortcut in FK using a command line? So I can create a button on my keypad to open that shortcut when tapped. I can currently accomplish this using hotkeys and have the stream deck execute that hot key but using a command should eliminate coming up with free hotkeys.

This means FastKeys would first need to run (reload) before executing the listed parameters - there would be a short delay.
But it is certainly possible to implement it in one of the next releases.

I would also be interested in the possibility of calling up shortcuts directly via Commandline.

One of my main use cases in Fastkeys is to call up an app via shortcuts. If the app is already running → the script simply brings the window into focus, if not → the app is started.

This works really well and is a life-/timesaver.

If I could also activate these shortcuts via the CommandLine, it would be possible to trigger the call via a written command in a program such as “Listary” in addition to the call via the hotkeys.
