I am going to purchase a mechanical keyboard, but it will contain no volume controls or program short-cuts.
Assuming I purchase a plain keyboard, is there a technology available that would provide me quick access to volume controls and common programs?
Answer
You could use a generic hotkey utility like AutoHotkey to assign keyboard shortcuts (something unlikely to be used by normal applications, like Ctrl+Alt+F12) to perform your desired special functions.
Examples:
Windows+F11 increase volume:
#F11::Send {Volume_Up}
Ctrl+Alt+Numpad0 start Calculator:
^!Numpad0::Run Calc
See the linked pages for hotkey reference, changing volume.
