With the new AddressOf keyword in RB v5.5a5, callbacks are now possible. Given this, I recently created an example project to install a global hotkey that calls back into the RB project. This should be easy to adapt to any RB project.
You can download the example project here. Requires RB v5.5a7 or later.
If you are still using RB v5.5a5 or 5.5a6, one simple change will make the project work for you. Simply add this line to the top of the hotkey callback function:
#pragma StackOverflowChecking False

Kevin,
Thank you! I’ve been casually hunting for a solution like this for some time and stumbled across your blog during a serendipitous search for Growl and RB.
In the future, I’d like to integrate this into the time tracking app OfficeTime (www.officetime.net)
In the meantime, I’d be happy to give you free commercial license to OfficeTime as a partial thank you.
