Long Description:
-----------------

Hot Keys is a global hot key utility and program launcher which lets you 
launch your most often used programs and documents from anywhere in the 
Microsoft Windows environment.  Hot Keys is accessed by clicking with the 
secondary mouse button on the desktop, or clicking on the Hot Keys icon. 
The icon may optionally not be displayed.  This displays a pop up menu, 
which contains a list of items that you configure.  The menu is fully 
configurable, with sub-menus, menu breaks, and separators.

Setting up applications for Hot Keys is a breeze with drag and drop file 
support for File Manager, and you may also import existing program groups 
from Program Manager.

A set of key strokes (the Hot Key) may be assigned to each item on the 
menu.  This allows the application to be accessed from any other 
application.  For instance, you may assign Ctrl + Alt + D to start an 
MS-DOS prompt.

Besides supporting programs and documents, hot keys supports internal 
commands for such functions as exiting windows, or a run dialog box. 
Bailing out of windows can be as simple as pressing Ctrl + Alt + X.
