Adding accelerator key for a program

[Steve Fabian]

Back in Windows 3 there was a program which allowed adding accelerator keys which operated only in a specific window. I could make the same key do completely different things in different active GUI windows. The base action for each would typically be a nice long key sequence Accelerator would be so much handlier! Any suggestions?

I use AutoHotKey (http://www.autohotkey.com/). Other Windows automation utilities are available.

Edit: http://ahkscript.org/ seems to have a more recent version.
