Githawk: Keyboard Shortcuts

[Sherlouk]

Should try and closely match GitHub's keyboard shortcuts in the app, the main ones that interest me would be stuff like cmd+b for bold and other markdown shortcuts

yessss

Too cool, lets do it!

[Sherlouk]

Proposing as a start with current functionality:

s - Search (as part of #200)
n - Go to Notifications
cmd+z/x for Undo/Redo (assuming SlackTextViewController can be used with NSUndoManager)
cmd+b/i/k for bold/italics/url respectively
enter for start reply (??)
~cmd+enter for submit comment~ SlackTextVC seems to already support enter on physical keyboards!
l for edit labels
~m for edit milestones~ (Soon)
~a for edit assignee~ (Soon)
j/k to move selection up/down at notification level
y to mark selection as read

Obviously all this should be context aware

[BasThomas]

And we should check for which ones it would make sense to make them discoverable. Maybe we won't need to add all of them there.

Just a suggestion but shouldn’t search be cmd+f like in pretty much every single other app? Much more discoverable imho.

[Sherlouk]

@shaps80 I was deliberating this one, GitHub uses s but most people use cmd+f for find

Not sure 🤔 Will let someone else choose

[shaps80]

Maybe it should be configurable. Personally when using a keyboard in an APP (not a website) I would expect to hit CMD+F (CTRL+F Windows).

That said, I was unaware of GitHub's S shortcut. So maybe that's why its odd for me.

Also up/down arrows to browse lists :)

Will try to start tackling this soon!

Was about to be like welcome to the team 😅 Changing profile pictures should be banned 🙄 Looking forward to this!

[BasThomas]

Thanks for the warm welcome! 😍
