Global hotkeys
Global hotkeys can now be enabled from the Settings menu.
You can find the global hotkey list on the Keyboard shortcuts dialog (in the Help menu).
The global hotkeys are only available on Windows.
With global hotkeys you can do the followings from SC2 (or from any other applications):
CTRL+ALT+R enable/disable replay auto-save
CTRL+ALT+A enable/disable APM alert
CTRL+ALT+M start/stop mouse print recording
CTRL+ALT+T bring Sc2gears to front
A new setting on the Replay auto-save tab: "New replay detection method"
You can choose a method for the Replay auto-saver how to detect new replays.
The "Polling" is the method that was used before: the auto-replay folders are periodically scanned for new replays.
On Windows there is another method available: "Event based". This method does not scan periodically the auto-replay folders, it uses OS services to be notified when a new replay is saved therefore it uses no CPU resource. This is the default now.
New sounds when replay auto-save and APM alert is turned on/off or when mouse print recording is started/stopped with global hotkeys.
APM Alert has been re-written using native system calls which results in less CPU usage.
Map aliases did not work correctly. This is fixed now.
