Which way do you move the map around?

I used to use arrow keys, but that was very impractical because of distance from hotkeys and bumping around with mouse was weird for me.
So I copied/modified some Autohotkey snippets and now I use WSAD + clicking on minimap for moving around and Shift + WSAD to access underlying hotkeys (the new grid ones).
It's quite awesome and I recommend to try it.. (I can post my version if anyone is interested..)

Arrow keys on WASD
Tactical map on Middle mouse button (which i use quite frequently to observe the general battlefield panorama)

Attack (A) goes on Q
Stop (S) goes on F

Control groups from 1-6 (for other games i reserved 7890 for lesser buildings)
1-3 on early game is snipers, mgs, scoutcars and then evolves into tanks/snipers
4/6 goes for mortars/artyllery
5 goes for Pios/CE


I would love being able to move all abilities to <ZXCY

PLEASE post how to change the hot keys. This is a continous problem. There used to be an "bridgerS" hot key guide for COH1. I don't know if anyone has that or if it works with COH2.

But hopefully RELIC will maybe listen to add this support. Espc. since default hotkeys are not laid out great. would be good for new players to be done by JUNE!

key::otherkey
or 
key::Send, {otherkey}

I would never use arrow keys myself. To move around the map i use the middle scroll button, idle infantry unit, tactical map and hotkeys.
