Hmmm... I'm certainly no expert when it comes to hotkey programs, but I downloaded the latest version of AutoHotKey, created a quick and simple script with one KB shortcut assigned to send some simple text to the open window (Sigil). It seemed to work fine (whether or not Sigil already had the shortcut assigned).

I tried it with both v2.0.10 and v2.1-alpha.1 of AutoHotKey. All on Windows 10 with Sigil 2.0.2

I do not use AltGr so maybe that's the difference?
