Hotkeys Chords

trenta3trenta34k downloads

Configurable hotkeys chords to activate commands.

Add to Obsidian
  • Overview
  • Scorecard
  • Updates1

This plugin allows you to set hotkey chords (sequence of hotkeys) to activate Obsidian commands. This makes it possible to tie Emacs-like keybinding sequences such as C-x C-s to any available Obsidian command (also those exported by other plugins) in the configuration pane of the plugin.

Please open an issue if something is unclear or does not work but I already know I won't have much time to dedicate to it.
