Since Logitech first started producing all kinds of multimedia keyboards, the keyboard has transformed into a console with all sorts of system functions from the original pure-text input tool. But most of our keyboards do not come with these convenient function keys, such as volume control keys, media play keys, etc. So is it possible to modify the default keyboard keys to support launching/calling the system functions? The answer is yes.

Hotkeycontrol (successor of MapKeyboard) is a very simple system hotkeys customizing tool which enables you to complete various of system operations through combination keys on a common keyboard. Compared with the system-provided hotkeys function, Hotkeycontrol is much more flexible, convenient and versatile. It claims to be currently the easiest way to create keyboard shortcuts for common tasks, or to remap keys and customize keyboard layout.

With Hotkeycontrol, you can quickly set hotkeys to launch various programs or call sundry system functions (including their corresponding parameters). Its convenience on operation allows you to less move the mouse, and more strike the keyboard to improve the efficiency of computer operation. In other words, it can make your general keyboard turn into an Internet or multimedia keyboard. For example, you can even use it to control the ejection and retraction of the CD/DVD drive.
