yusufipk 822cf3b2a3 Merge master: the shortcut table, local models, and a Mac still in them
Four files disagreed, and all four the same way: master had turned things the
Mac branch wrote out by hand into one list to read from.

Shortcuts are the whole of it. master gave every binding a row in
hotkey.SHORTCUTS, so the Mac's DESKTOP_IDS is gone and CarbonHotkey reads the
desktop id off that row, which also gives the new cancel key a status line on a
Mac. Settings builds its four rows through master's _shortcut_row, and that one
now asks _install_buttons for Install and Remove, so macOS gets a combination
box and nothing to press, and everywhere else the button says the desktop's own
name. dikte.py starts the listener from the same table, on macOS whatever the
setting says: there is nothing installed for it to be a fallback to.

The rest is two imports and a paste list that lives in paste.Desktop now.

"""Global shortcuts: the desktop's own registry, plus a listener of our own.
Two things have to happen for a key combination to reach Dikte. Somewhere has
to be told about it, and something has to be listening. On Linux that is the
desktop's shortcut registry (KDE's file, GNOME's gsettings) and a reader of
/dev/input for the wait until the registry is live. macOS has no registry to
write into: the application asks Carbon for the combination while it runs, so
there the listener is not a fallback but the whole mechanism.
