Please see this page for the first.

Also use the command bind help to display additional helpful information.

There are two ways to bind keys

  1. For the current instrument and exchange only (default)

  2. Globally, for every instrument and exchange

Most keys will accept a binding, including letters a-z, A-Z and some symbols. Numerical 1,2,3,4... etc keys and special keys such as Escape, Space etc can be used by typing a special code. Enter "bind help" to see the list.

After you successfully bind the key, pressing that key will trigger the command.

Important: key presses will not register if you have a textbox input selected in the Terminal UI. If you want to use a hotkey right after setting up the bind, use the TAB key to disengage typing in the CLI.

You do not need the Terminal CLI window to be open for your keys to function.

You can also configure a Elgato Stream Deck for the Terminal's hotkeys.
