Stopping a recording is the step there is no taking back. It is what sends the audio off, and a moment later the sentence you did not mean to dictate is in the clipboard and pasted into whatever window you were typing in. The tray menu was the only way out, and by the time it is open the recording has already gone. Discarding needed to be as quick as starting, which means a key. Ctrl+Alt+Space rather than Escape: the combination the recording started with, one modifier along, so the two are one gesture with a modifier between them. Escape is the obvious choice and the wrong one, because it belongs to whichever window has focus, and while you are talking something else usually has it. It works on a dictation and on a command for the agent alike, since the one you want to take back is the one that is running. That made four global shortcuts, and four is the number at which three copies of the same forty lines stop being a coincidence. The command line already had a table of them; hotkey.py now holds it, and the settings window reads it too, so a shortcut is a row rather than a combination box, two buttons, a status label and three methods written out again. The window no longer takes the commands to run as arguments either, because ipc.command_for already knows them from the verb. Adding the fourth key is what this buys: one line in the table and one call per row. Both places a key can live are told about it. The listener catching the press and the KDE shortcut arriving behind it go through the same echo guard the toggle already had, so the two are one discard rather than two, and the tray calls the inner method as it already did for the toggle. Ctrl+Space and Ctrl+Alt+Space land on the same evdev key code, so there is a test for the modifier matching that keeps them apart. install.sh takes the second key as a second argument and refuses to register two of the same. It hands both to `dikte shortcut install` rather than writing kglobalshortcutsrc itself, which is what makes it work on GNOME, and what finally puts the chosen key in the settings as well: the built-in listener reads it from there, so a key written to only one of the two places was a key that half worked. Left empty in the settings window the discard key stays empty, unlike the dictation shortcut which falls back to Ctrl+Space: a recording can always be thrown away from the tray menu, so there is nothing to guarantee here.
