Add the ability to set individual hotkeys to directly toggle commonly used modes.

Note: I already have a hotkey set up to toggle the mode pop-up, but it'd be nice to be able to quickly switch to specific modes via hotkeys, essentially eliminating that middle step. Love the app. (Pro user).

nice idea!

Wouldn't it be more interesting to be able to choose which mode we want to use at the beginning of the chat?

Alex Borto, that's a neat idea. I think I now have a combo of our two ideas that would be optimal...
I could see having hotkeys that switch the mode and also initiate a chat. So, we could have our regular SuperWhisper hotkey, like I use the right option button, but we could also have these hotkey/shortcuts to quickly switch modes while also initiating a chat. Since if we're switching modes, we're very likely about to start some dictating. 
Note: The reason I would prefer the hotkey switch over having to select the mode every time we begin a chat is that I often use the same mode 5, 10, or 20 times in a row before I need to switch modes. The hotkey would be used to switch modes, not necessarily to start a new chat.

Would be perfect. I'm tired of switching between languages, because superwhisper keeps translating one to another since you can only specify one language per mode...

Pretty please add this feature!
