HotKeys jQuery Plug-In version 0.7 is out
Posted: September 5, 2008 Filed under: javascript, jquery, webdev, www | Tags: event, javascript, jquery, keyboard, opensource, webdev 5 CommentsLast night I released a new comprehenced version of jshotkeys. This plugin lets you easily add and remove handlers for keyboard events anywhere in your code supporting almost any key combination.
For example, to bind Ctrl+C to a function fn simply type:
$(document).bind('keydown', 'Ctrl+c', fn);
See the live demo.

There are only five of us who work on reddit; we couldn’t have made this site if it weren’t for a great community of developers. In no particular order, here’s a quick list of the open source products that reddit is built and runs upon: Debian, lighttpd, HAProxy, PostgreSQL, Slony-I, various python libraries, Psychopg, pylons, Solr, Tomcat, Ganglia, Mercurial, Git, gettext (translation), daemontools, and memcached.
Five people. 1,000,000’s of pages every day.
