Specific solution (for my keyboard Swedish):
Map OEM_US\| to get the '§' key
Generic solution (to map any supported key):
- Open menu 'configuration''
- Open dialogue 'options'
- Select section 'Misc.' (bottom)
- Under 'Redefine hotkeys (Keyboard remapping)':
- Select drop down for 'Hotkey' once
- Tap the desired key
- Select the desired command to assign key to

Original post:
Hi,
(Long time user of TC but I have never really digged into the customization possibilities of it, much because I am so happy how it works out of the box.)
Question: How do I override a shortcut by assigning it to the paragraph ('§') key? Is it possible?
I know I can override shortcuts by adding a [shortcuts] section in the wincmd.ini file and add rows for each shortcut, as described in the manual.
However, I fail to do this with the §-key. What am I missing?
Background: I am not only a long time TC user, I got hooked on Norton Commander ages ago and TC has become what NC was and way, way more than that. Without compromising speed and ease of use. However, there's one shortcut I still miss from NC. In TC it is CTRL+U and SHIFT+CTRL+U for swapping panels, or exchange directories as it is named in TC.
I was thinking of using the old NC shortcut for it which, if my muscle memory serves me right, is the §-key just above the tab key. Adding the row '§=cm_exchange' under the added [shortcuts] section of my wincmd.ini won't work anyway. The input ends up in the command line instead. I suspect that shortcuts must use some combination keys and that I'm stuck with that. Or?
