Update shortcuts.sample.ini, test shortcuts, improve commandlist.txt

[AEonZR]

Looking into how much actually works and what needs to be updated concerning external shortcut remapping via shortcuts.ini file.

• Creating a new shortcuts.sample.ini file updated to v1.6.x... testing shortcuts and commands, added huge section on tips and what works and what not in that file.
• Making the commandlist.txt a bit nicer (1. column needs to be made 1char wider), plus changing the way the qualifiers are presented, new order: Control + Shift + Alt+.
• Creating a new file when calling the Help menu, Shortcuts list called shortcut_cmds.txt, the file is very similar to the commandlist.txt file, only it mimics the exact syntax required for the shortcuts.ini file. Letting the user copy/paste between them.

This should clear up any potential issues regarding shortcuts. Plus probably "motivate" the addition of more command hooks, to let folks bind more functions.

Well I have it almost done:

Alas, there is an issue with commands that get assigned TWO or more keys:

{"Patch TAB", GDK_Tab, 0x00, ID_PATCH_TAB, "menu_patch_tab"},
{"Patch TAB", GDK_Tab, 0x01, ID_PATCH_TAB, "menu_patch_tab"},

and e.g.

{"SetGrid1", '1', 0, ID_GRID_1, "menu_grid_1"},
{"SetGrid1", GDK_KP_1, 0, ID_GRID_1, "menu_grid_1"},

In the code this is no problem, but the way the original code reads the shortcuts.ini makes it impossible to bind e.g. KP_1 and 1 to SetGrid1.

I noticed this by creating a shortcut_cmds.txt in the editor without re-binding keys (=a clean internal shortcut list), then copy/pasted that complete list into shortcuts.ini to then check what the editor console says to all this when restarting the editor. All bindings work... except for the cases above. Luckily I added debug code on the console that warns about this.

As long as you do not try to rebind commands used twice or more via shortcuts.ini you are fine though... hmmm...

Alas, trying to fix this would mean having to pretty much recode the (IMO, roundabout) way how the shortcuts.ini shortcuts are read.

Updated a shortcuts.ini.sample16 file, giving many tips plus explaining how to best bind keys.

Removed the commands that are bound twice, to avoid the temptation to do so. These are (presently):

SetGrid1, SetGrid2, SetGrid4, SetGrid8, SetGrid16, SetGrid64,
SetGrid128, SetGrid256, SetGrid32, Patch TAB, and ToggleGrid.

I posted an updated shortcuts.ini.sample16 here:

Should help folks set up their keymap more easily.

I made a "gist" here at github:

Just to "try it out", I was curious, because it's actually a git versioned pastebin .. weird.
