The first content of the readme points to the key combination feature documentation: https://github.com/gmamaladze/globalmousekeyhook/blob/master/keycomb.md

The sample code also provides how-to: https://github.com/gmamaladze/globalmousekeyhook/blob/master/examples/ConsoleHook/DetectCombinations.cs

And here are some extracts of my usage:

  //Listen to keyboard bindings
  Hook.GlobalEvents().KeyDown += onKeyDown;

  //the event handler uses a KeyEventArgs which has the list of keys pressed in its KeyData property
  // https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.windows.forms.keyeventargs.keydata?view=windowsdesktop-6.0
  private void onKeyDown(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs e)
  {
        if(e.KeyData == StringToKeys("Ctrl+x"))
        {
              //do some stuff
        }
  }

  //my helper function to create a System.Windows.Forms.Keys from a string representation using the Combination class provided by GlobalMouseKeyHook
  public static System.Windows.Forms.Keys StringToKeys(string keyStr)
  {
      if (String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(keyStr))
                  throw new ArgumentException("Cannot be null or whitespaces.", nameof(keyStr));
      Combination combination = Combination.FromString(keyStr);
      Keys result = combination.TriggerKey;
      foreach (var chord in combination.Chord)
      {
         result |= chord;
      }
      return result;
  }

Hope it helps
