A hotkey is a sequence of keys needed to be pressed to perform a single or multi-function. I want to do CTRL+Q, and it would open up a gui

It depends. Do you want a script that'll do something when you press a button, or do you want to set a Hotkey for in studio? http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=Keyboard_Shortcuts Or... http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=KeyDown_(Event) http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=Taking_keyboard_input

use LocalPlayer:GetMouse() so you can do something like local LocalPlayer = Game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer local Mouse = LocalPlayer:GetMouse() local key = Mouse.KeyDown:wait() if key:byte() == 50 then -- control print("Key has been pressed") end Just do something like that, if you do use GetMouse then you would need a loop.
