Request for a new group of actions that are able to send alt & ctrl charaters to mp3tag.  
For example, ctrl A to select all files or ctrl D to change the directory.

So I can code  
ctrl D - change directory, now I have to click on a directory from the popup window  
ctrl A - to selects all the files  
alt 2 - to copy the filename pattern to the tags  
alt 5 - to start again from ctrl D

Yes I know, I'm a lazy $%^\*\*\*$% ![:whistling:](https://community.mp3tag.de/uploads/default/original/1X/24af0b71cb3500e93c17fe8ea8f109476224851f.gif ":whistling:")

But, amongst the rubbish that is on the web - this is one of the rare great programs  
Keep up the good work  
Thanks
