Yesterday I had a few reports that Kosmos GUI breaks down right at the start, reporting “System.ArgumentException: Illegal hotkey ‘Ctrl+N’.” error. I could not reproduce this problem, but I think it occurs only on non-English Windows, probably because the Microsoft code I used to parse hotkeys expects different forms of hotkeys for different languages. I tried to change the UI culture for the application and test if the error occurs then, but to no avail.

I decided to fix this by implementing my own parsing logic for hotkeys. Again, I could not test if this now works for non-English Windows. So please download the latest package (2.0.508.0) and let me know if this problem is solved.
