Aliaskeys

AliasKeys lets you assign keystrokes to open files and folders. Any item that the Finder can open may be dragged to the list of AliasKeys and assigned a combination of keys, to open it without touching your mouse. You can use AliasKeys for applications, documents, folders, aliases, preference panels, servers, scripts... Hitting the keys opens the corresponding item, as would a double-click on its icon. AliasKeys is basically as simple as that; it is also extremely easy to set up. AliasKeys needs Mac OS X 10.2 or better. It is fully compatible with 10.3 "Panther". AliasKeys is fully unicode-aware and can be used with any international keyboard and localized system version. Languages included: English, French, Japanese. Changes in version 1.0.3: * A couple of cosmetic bugs fixed in the French resources. * Previous versions used a self-copying "internet-aware" disk image. They are a good idea, but they only work well in some web browsers. For many users, they create a unmanageable situation that has caused plenty of tech support emails. Thus, with this version, we are back to a "plain" .dmg file, along with a .sit for backup. * Adventurous users can test a hidden feature. Open "~/Library/Preferences/net.widemann.aliaskeys.plist" and set openFinderSelectionWithCapsLock to YES (or true), then save, log out and login back. From now on, if the capslock key is down, AliasKeys will try to open the selected item(s) in the Finder with the triggered item.
