Alt+(j/k): j/k should be user configurable

[manogna4]

This is for non-qwerty layouts.

This is the first time I am commenting on an open source project. I am sorry if this is not the right place to do it.

That is the right place :-) For the time being you can use an AutoHotKey script. I.E:

#ifWinActive AHK_EXE switcheroo.exe !x:: Send !j !y:: Send !k #ifWinActive

where x,y are your alternative j,k keys

It is not about a single hotkey combo. It is more of a global issue, when users would prefer or can only use Ctrl instead instead of Alt (see my case below). Ability to modify all hotkeys in one place/registry or at least modify "modifier" key would be better than hard-coded combinations.

In my case, I've got Ctrl on "home row" (asdf) by CapsLockToCtrl.reg, and single hand Ctrl+Space is very handy to invoke Switcheroo, Ctrl+ would be fastest one to do other things as well.

Can I really use Alt/j-k for up down while searching? I have Windows 10 and this does not work. Is this an option?

@afilp If it's not on the mainstream release you can use my custom release
