DeepL keyboard shortcuts

DeepL's desktop shortcuts send selected text from any application to DeepL for translation or writing improvement. Translation uses a repeated C sequence; the keys are not pressed as one simultaneous chord.

Translate or improve selected text

Select text in any app first. For translation, hold the platform modifier and press C twice; ordinary copy sends nothing to DeepL.
