Hi,

Where can I set a keyboard shortcut or alternatively a command to this menu item that quickly adds an empty file without any menus?

Here's how the file is added:

    Maybe <Ctrl+N> already works. I think that the command is called “File.NewFile” and you can change the shortcut in Option dialog (Environment, Keyboard tab) from Tools menu.
