Keyboard shortcuts for WordPress

Status

This plugin is currently a proof of concept more than anything else. The plugin is (hopefully) built so that other plugins can easily add their own shortcuts.

The plugin uses Mousetrap for the actual keyboard shortcut functionality, but this may change due to licensing incompatibility. The plugin abstracts this away though, so changing the library at a later date won't be too much of an issue.
