Hotkey issue

Ctri+H shortcut should decrease BPM by 1, but toggles Help window instead - at least in Linux version

Ctrl+h (in milkytrackermode, dunnow about ft2-mode) has indeed been repurposed to trigger the help screen (to match other trackers like sunvox).

will ctrlalt+ ctrlalt- be sufficient for bpm increase/decrease?

Another idea is to put milkytracker in LIVE-mode by enabling capslock, which would then remap:

• plus and minus keys as BPM-controls (instead of instrument choosers)
• other future dj-controls

[coderofsalvation]

btw. you've also mentioned loopmode on/off for dj-mixing.
That makes sense, and would be very convenient (when mixing in a new song, loop the pattern of the previous song so there won't be surprises there).

In milkytracker so far:

• CTRL+Enter = pattern-play (looped)
• Enter = song play

Your idea might also scratch one of my itches when composing...which is..when I'm listening to the song...and when I hear something off..I want to go straight into editing mode and fix it...IN pattern-loop mode..
The issue is that when hitting CTRL+Enter during songplay (=Enter) is that it will restart the pattern abruptly.
Perhaps I can find a way to have CTRL+Enter simply enter pattern loopmode with that restart.

Idea?
