Hotkeycontrol will create hotkeys that let you do almost anything using your keyboard. These tasks include but are not limited to opening files, ejecting cdrom drives, restarting the computer, controlling active windows, changing volume, macros and much more. Besides the regular features, the volume status can be shown on screen (OSD). Pictures or rtf documents can also be shown directly and transparently on screen which can be handy in displaying TV tuner channels, game cheats, etc. And, more features can be added to the program by creating plugins - which essentially makes the possibilities limitless. In addition to normal combination hotkeys, you can use single keys such as function or number pad keys. The additional keys on your Multimedia/Internet keyboard can also be used with Hotkeycontrol and all the hotkeys are functional even in games and in other full-screen DirectX applications.
