For me its not possible to add a shortcode to ALT+N on a Mac

Hi Ralf, it appears to be a quirk in the Mac OS. There are several Alt key combinations that generate special characters, like Alt+N generates a tilde (~) character and Alt+N followed by a plain N generates an "N with tilde" (Ñ).

This appears to happen at a low level in the OS so MoI doesn't have a chance to see the key press event for this combination.

There is some discussion here about how to turn those off so they can be used in an app:
