I want to try and tweak the command for adding a label during playback. Currently the shortcut Control-M adds a label while you are recording. I was wondering if anyone knows if its possible to add text to this by editing the XML file.
I was hoping that as well as creating a marker when the shortcut is pressed, that it would add a word to this marker.
So basically if I pressed ctrl-m a marker with the label 'forward' would be created.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated!

Re: Adding text to customized keyboard shortcut
You should just be able to typoe the label text just after pressing the CTRL+M - it will help if you have zoomed out a bit first so that the cursor movement doesn't push your label of the screen window. It's a bit easier in 1.3, but it does work in 1.2 - I just tested it.

Thanks!
You're right. On 1.3 you can type a label as soon as ctrl-m is pressed while its still recording. Excellent! I was using 1.2
