The complete shortcut reference, generated from the same registry the app itself uses.
createtodo is built to be driven from the keyboard. This reference is generated from the
same shortcut registry the app uses, so it is always current. Mod means
⌘ on macOS and Ctrl on Windows and Linux — shortcuts are shown here
with ⌘.
The app also has a built-in shortcut overlay — check the help menu when you need a
reminder without leaving the app.
