Suggestions for better default hotkeys?

If you have any good suggestions for better default hotkeys/hotkey combinations than r+2+p on the keyboard and Mode/PS+DPAD_UP on a PS3/XBox controller type(more buttons), please post below.

I have received some feedbacks that r+2+p is unnecessary cumbersome and that Mode/PS+DPAD_UP doesn't work on e.g. most 8 bit gamepads(missing Mode/PS button).

The challenge is that many single key hotkeys/shortcuts(how about F8?) on the keyboard already are taken by other popular apps/functions and most, if not all, button combinations on 8 bit gamepads are already reserved in RetroPie and other game frontends/launchers:

Known issues

List of known issues:

  • If you install with the installer scripts using sudo, the Triggerhappy service will be installed and run as root, setting file ownership and permissions to root. FIX: Rerun installation scripts without sudo.
  • Gamepads need to be registered as HID-devices to trigger the Triggerhappy hotkey commands. Please install the newer sixaxis driver instead of the old ps3controller, as described here: https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/PS3-Controller

If you run into and want to inform about other issues, don't hesitate to post them below.
