Close squirt when escape is pressed. #2

This is a really awesome, but I have some requests.

Clicking outside of the panel is the only way to close the overlay. It would be good if it could also be closed by pressing the escape button or something similar.

So adding a keydown even which triggers hideGUI()?

dmtroyer commented 10 years ago

keyboard shortcuts in general would be great.

I agree. Would make it much more usable without fumbling for the mouse to pause. Some shortcuts that make sense to me: esc: close squirt up: speed up by 50 wpm down: slow by 50 wpm left: << 10s space: pause

Agreed! This would make an awesome tool even better. Especially space to pause and escape to close. If you get interrupted when you're reading at a fast speed you can quickly lose your place before you manage to pause.

Closing in favor of other issues mentioning shortcuts.
