I am looking for a way to create a permanent keyboard short cut to paste a text. Example: Whenever I press strg+shift+F1 I would like to paste "Quod erat demonstrandum." Maybe there is way to do this with the default Ubuntu settings or CompizConfig?

There are lots of websites which only allow signing in with email address and password and I am tired of typing a long email address. I don't want my browser to remember my email. Can I assign a keyboard shortcut to print this email address so that every time I press the key I get my email address on current text field?   I am using Ubuntu 14.04 and I have very little knowledge about Ubuntu. I'm not talking about snippets. Just a defined text to paste when the key is pressed.

How can I find which command is bound to a give keyboard shortcut? I remember playing with my keyboard shortcuts recently in different places: System/Preferences/Keyboard Shortcuts, "gnome-keyboard-properties" and Compiz. Is there a central place where all those shortcuts are kept or do I have to remember all the places where I set a keyboard shortcut?

I have to change my language option very often. It is hard when I write something with combination of both "English" &amp; "Bangla", because I have to change that option rapidly.  Is there any way to set a keyboard shortcut, so that I can change my language option by it while typing?  I am using MacBook Pro with OS X.   Here is a screen shot:    Screen Shot of my Preference:

Is there any way to set keyboard shortcuts to quickly change to a different language/keyboard layout? The old shortcuts still seem to work (when set back in Windows 7), but I can't seem to find anything to change it in Windows 10.

I am used to use the numeric keypad for navigation (e.g. : [KP7] -> Start, [KP1] -> End, [KP4] -> Left, etc... ). I am also used to use it for selection (e.g. : Shift+[KP7] -> Select from cursor position to beginning of line, Shift+[KP1] -> Select from cursor position to end of line, etc...)  With the keyboard configuration installed with Ubuntu, though, Shift+[KP7] prints the character "7", Shift+[KP1] prints "1", etc...  How can I change this so that Shift+[KP-key] is not mapped to [key], but to Shift+[KP-key] ?

I would like to disable  Shift+Command+Q keyboard shortcut for Log Out.   I am using Karabiner at the moment, but I only managed to disable it completely using the following xml:  &lt;?xml version="1.0"?&gt; &lt;root&gt;     &lt;item&gt;         &lt;name&gt;Disable COMMAND SHIFT Q for Logout&lt;/name&gt;         &lt;identifier&gt;disable_CMD_SHIFT_Q_private&lt;/identifier&gt;         &lt;autogen&gt;__KeyToKey__ KeyCode::Q, VK_SHIFT | VK_COMMAND | ModifierFlag::NONE, KeyCode::VK_NONE&lt;/autogen&gt;     &lt;/item&gt; &lt;/root&gt;   but I would like to have the keyboard combination available in emacs (in ESS for debugging).  Is there some way that I can effectively unmap the keyboard combination?

How can xkb or some other tool be used to permanently bind Caps Lock to ctrl+b while in terminal?  (This is to make Caps Lock the default prefix key for tmux. It could also be mapped to a specific key if that's too difficult, e.g. a function key, which could then be made the tmux prefix instead.)

I tried to learn Dvorak keyboard layout a few years ago, and got reasonably good at it, but I couldn't get past the fact that command-key shortcuts were no longer in the right place.  In particular, Ctrl+Z (undo), Ctrl+X (cut), Ctrl+C (copy), and Ctrl+V (paste) are all chosen specifically because of the location of those keys on a Qwerty keyboard (well, maybe Ctrl+C makes sense).  Ctrl+A (select all) and Ctrl+S (save) are also very convenient because of their Qwerty keyboard location.  Is there any way (on Windows XP) to use Dvorak except when a control key (Ctrl, Alt, and/or WinLogo) is pressed?  (Preferably without having to install any third party app.)
