I don't think so. You would have to have a menu item at all times that matched the keyboard shortcut you are defining. Is this the case? If so then the user can set a shortcut but it is, in my opinion, a clunky way of defining shortcuts because the user has to get the menu title exactly right, etc. 3) if I have to re-create a GUI to save the keyboard shortcuts in _my_ preference pane, am I to understand that the only key-modifiers allowed are command-shift? That's a misunderstanding. You can also use control and option, and starting in 10.3, you can choose to use no modifiers at all. You're going to want to use the Carbon RegisterEventHotKey mechanism. If you search the archives you'll see that some people have Cocoa-wrappers for this.
