Global HotKeys plugin for Obsidian

The Global Hotkeys plugin for Obsidian allows you to define system-wide shortcuts to execute any Obsidian commands (regardless of whether Obsidian is currently focused).

In my case, I copy a lot of Markdown links into obsidian each day, so anything that makes it easier to do that and append the links to the right note is handy.

I defined this shortcut:

#todo Move to a separate til:

And these QuickAdd

Without the global shortcut, my desktop-based workflow looked like this:

1. Decide I want to save the page I just read in my browser
2. Press yy to copy a Markdown link for the current page to my clipboard via SurfingKeys
3. Press cmd-space to open Alfred
4. Press o-o-enter to select my inbox note or o-space to search for a particular topic note
5. Copy the link and press enter to append it to the selected note

• used it to create global shortcut Cmd+Shift+N to open the QuickAdd menu in Obsidian
• my quickadd templates:
  • note
  • til
  • work story
  • work task?
  • post?
