| ; Sane Navigation Shortcuts with Alt | |
| ; | |
| ; An easier and more consistent way to send PgUp/PgDown/ | |
| ; Home/End for laptops with no dedicated keys for these | |
| ; functions. | |
| ; | |
| ; The following shortcuts recruit Alt as a better Fn key, | |
| ; since Alt is on both sides of the keyboard and isn't used | |
| ; much otherwise. | |
| ; | |
| ; Alt + left arrow = Home | |
| ; Alt + right arrow = End | |
| ; Alt + up arrow = PgUp | |
| ; Alt + down arrow = PgDn | |
| ; | |
| ; Each Alt key (right and left) must be referred to specific- | |
| ; ally, else problems arise. Also, it's sometimes necessary | |
| ; to leave out {Alt Up}. | |

| ; Alt + left/right arrow keys conflicts with existing short- | |
| ; cuts in file/internet browsers (plus Alt + up arrow con- | |
| ; flicts in Explorer). So, use OS X keyboard shortcuts in | |
| ; those programs, instead (plus an imperfect compromise | |
| ; to replace Alt + up). | |
| ; | |
| ; In OS X, to go back/forward, Command + left and right | |
| ; brackets ('[]') are used. So, the same are set up here, | |
| ; except using Alt instead of Command. | |
| ; | |
| ; An imperfect replacement for Alt-Up (or Command-Up in | |
| ; OS X) is Alt + '.' (period). The mnemonic for this is that | |
| ; '..' is used on the command line to go up one level in a | |
| ; directory. | |
| ; --Test if browser or Explorer is active window-- | |
| #If WinActive("ahk_class MozillaWindowClass") or WinActive("ahk_class Chrome_WidgetWin_1") or WinActive("ahk_class CabinetWClass") | |

| ; --end Alt shortcuts-- | |
| ; --Not used-- | |
| ; I considered using right-Shift plus arrow keys for | |
| ; PgUp/Down and Home/End for browsers and Explorer, since | |
| ; Alt + right/left arrows, and Alt + up arrow for Explorer, | |
| ; are already shortcuts in these programs. But, this | |
| ; seemed like too much cognitive dissonance. However, if | |
| ; you want to use that scheme, the below may be useful. | |
| ; Exclude browsers and Explorer to avoid conflict with Alt + | |
| ; left/right arrow conflicts for Back/Forward shortcuts in | |
| ; those programs (and Alt + up arrow in Explorer for "up one | |
| ; directory level") | |
| ; #If !(WinActive("ahk_class MozillaWindowClass") OR WinActive("ahk_class Chrome_WidgetWin_1") OR WinActive("ahk_class CabinetWClass")) | |
