Global hotkey
«
on:
March 31, 2020, 10:32:25 am »
I'd like to register a hotkey (e.g cmd+alt+Q)" that will do a specific action in my application when pressed, even when my app isn't in the foreground.
Is that possible? I checked out getKeyState but that only gets modifiers

I'm on catalina and it still works. It's one of the functions that they kept functional in 64-bit
