Alternate numpad bindings with ctrl, alt, shift, etc.?

So I use the numpad for various aliases but I've run out of room and would like to use shift+numpad, ctrl+numpad, etc. to expand my options.. I notice there's not a way to set this in the menu (unless I'm just blind), but I do believe it can be accomplished?

Can someone give me a hand with setting this up?

Thanks so much!

Use accelerators.

Sorry, I'm not familiar with them. Would you mind elaborating a little bit?

Please read the MUSHclient FAQ - point 39.

Thank you, that works beautifully.

However, in testing this, I added an accelerator for 'Shift+D' and after removing it from the plugin the client still has that bound.

Obviously that won't work out because I need to be able to type a capital D.

How do I go about removing this?

Use this to find your accelerators:

Template:function=AcceleratorList
AcceleratorList

The documentation for the AcceleratorList script function is available online. It is also in the MUSHclient help file.



Then for each one:

Template:function=Accelerator
Accelerator

The documentation for the Accelerator script function is available online. It is also in the MUSHclient help file.



From that page:

Quote:

To disable a previously-assigned accelerator, call this function with an empty string as the command.


You would do that in the OnPluginClose function. Then when the plugin is removed all accelerators are removed. Or if you do this rarely, just type in the command window:


/ Accelerator ("shift+D", "")
