Save custom shortcuts

Question

is there a way to save the custom shortcuts that I will eventually set in this window:

Just wondering, I'll probably have to rewrite a bit of shortcuts for an app, and it would be nice if I could backup these if I need to reformat someday...

Thanks

Answer 1

Custom shortcuts are saved in your ~/Library/Preferences/* folder. If you back that up (which is a good thing to do if you reformat and restore), you'll be good.

*specifically in the com.apple.universalaccess.plist file, and NSUserKeyEquivalents entries in the .plist preference files of specific applications you set.
