; Some defaults recommended by AutoHotkey. I never ignore recommendations ;-)
; The shortcuts start after the recommendations
; ********************************************************************************
#NoEnv  ; Recommended for performance and compatibility with future AutoHotkey releases.
; #Warn  ; Enable warnings to assist with detecting common errors.
SendMode Input  ; Recommended for new scripts due to its superior speed and reliability.
SetWorkingDir %A_ScriptDir%  ; Ensures a consistent starting directory.

; Make the Mac 'cmd' button perform most of the tasks as ctrl button. Normally the Cmd
; button behaves like it is the Windows key

; For example the Cmd-C keystroke works like Ctrl-C. This way you don't have to think 
; about this while switching between the VM and the host, so you can keep focussing on 
; the work you are doing.

#q::Send !F4
#w::Send ^w
; #e::Send ^e ; I like to have Cmd behave as the Windows button here. Cmd-E == Explorer
; #r::Send ^r ; I like to have Cmd behave as the Windows button here. Cmd-R == Start -> Run
#t::Send ^t
#y::Send ^y
#u::Send ^u
#i::Send ^i
#o::Send ^o
#p::Send ^p

#s::Send ^s
#d::Send ^d
#f::Send ^f
#g::Send ^g

#l::Send ^l

#z::Send ^z
#x::Send ^x
#c::Send ^c
