Really nice! Thank you so much! 😄

Hey, I just installed, and it seems to be working well so far. I also swapped the keycaps on the board so I can remember witch is witch now. The only think I added so far was add back in a way to press "ctrl tab" I don't use it much but its a hot key to do something like change browser tab. As it was it currently acted like a second alt tab for changing Programs. Mostly though it was just for me to proof of concept making and editing on my own. Thanks for these though should provide a good base.

This is fantastic. Thank you!

It works. Thank you!

Thanks for the script! but it doesn't work properly for me....
The shortcuts works with the "option" key . Should work with the "command" key
Attached screenshots.
I am using a keyboard on a mac with a windows computer. I want the mac shortcuts.

@leog101 this is the JSON from your shorcuts they are more accurate if you come from mac as he explained.
