You cannot create user-defined keyboard shortcuts, but you can disable most of the pre-defined keyboard shortcuts (In Zoot called “System Hotkeys”). There were some Zoot hotkeys, which collide with other software like Citavi (reference manager), so I disabled them in Zoot, because I didn’t find any option to change them in Citavi.

Using a German keyboard with Zoot, I had recently problems with the EUR-sign (”€”) (CTRL+ALT+E), but they have gone now.

In the earlier days of Zoot 6 I had some problems with E-Mails containing German umlauts (”öüä”), which Zoot did not handle correctly (esp. because of the variety of modes : plain text, HTML, content with images, content without images. Maybe my complaints about wrong umlauts and the developer’s effort to solve that problem were one reason, that he did not find time for the documentation. (ha- ha!)

This is also something, which I am interested in. Any hints?
