title: Keyboard Shortcut Tiddler
tags: Concepts

A ''Keyboard Shortcut Tiddler'' is made of three parts:

* The ''Tag'' <<tag-pill $:/tags/KeyboardShortcut>>
* The ''field'' `key` with a [[Keyboard Shortcut Descriptor]] as its ''value''
* Actions in its ''text'' field

If the [[Keyboard Shortcut Descriptor]] has the form `((my-shortcut))` it's a ''reference'' to a ''configuration Tiddler'' that stores the corresponding [[Keyboard Shortcut|KeyboardShortcuts]]

In order to make a ''shortcut'' editable through the <<.controlpanel-tab KeyboardShortcuts>> Tab in the $:/ControlPanel it's sufficient to create a tiddler `$:/config/ShortcutInfo/my-shortcut`, where the ''suffix'' is the ''reference'' used for the [[Keyboard Shortcut|KeyboardShortcuts]]
