Hi, I'm using KDE 4.13.3 in KXStudio and I'm trying to add some special key commands based on the old Wordstar command set. Several of these commands require a more complex structure than I seem to be able to set up in System Settings > Shortcuts and Gestures > Custom Shortcuts. For instance, it's easy to set up a simple Wordstar command like so:

    Trigger: Ctrl+S = Action: Left (Left arrow key)

However, some of these key commands require something more like the following:

    Trigger: Ctrl+QR (Ctrl key + Q, pause, then hit the R key) = Action: Ctrl+Home

I know Linux is capable of using these types of key commands because programs like Softmaker Office and DosBox perform them just fine however when I try to add this type of key command into the trigger, it stops flat at Ctrl+Q and doesn't recognize any further key presses. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
