Launch Programs With Shortcuts

2009 July 3

This is a pretty basic script that is based off the post below but I think it’s necessary to put up on the site. You can easily launch programs using AutoHotkey. The script is uber-short:

Ctrl + Alt + F to launch Firefox (of which version 3.5 is out so download it!).
^!f::
run "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
return

^ stands for Ctrl
! stands for Alt
# stands for Windows

You can of course change the path of the program to anything you want! This helps a lot for people who use Word, Notepad, etc. a lot.

Download the script here.
