I want to replace the keyboard shortcut for ⌥Option + d = ∂
with ⌥Option + d = ð
How can I do that?
Best Answer
Create a plain text file with this in it (in TextEdit, use Format > Make Plain Text):
{
"~d" = ("insertText:", "ð");
}
Call it DefaultKeyBinding.dict (make sure to uncheck “When no extension is provided, use .txt”), and save it in ~/Library/KeyBindings/. (You can press Command ⌘+Shift ⇧+G and paste that path.)
The "~d" means Option-D, and the ("insertText:", "ð") means it will insert a ð character instead of ∂.
You will have to restart your applications in order for this setting to take effect.
First make sure that date created is a visible column in list view in finder. You can do this by entering list view and right clicking the headers and checking date created.
Then go to system preferences, keyboard, Shortcuts, and choose app shortcuts on the left. Then add a new shortcut for Finder by pressing the plus button and choosing finder from the drop down. In the menu title put "Date Created" exactly (without the quotes). Then focus the shortcut field and press your desired shortcut. For example Option+Command+8
