I used to have my own shortcut keys to minify all the CSS and JS files for my websites after I saved the original larger version of the file. But that was on Ubuntu 11.04 and now I cannot figure out for the life of me to get the Alt + Shift + E
to run my command. Anyone know what files to edit or what options screens to go through to complete this? Thanks in advance!

1This answer (entry for 11.10) is still valid for 12.04: http://askubuntu.com/a/69161/3940. For removal of shortcut see also: http://askubuntu.com/questions/30584/delete-key-assigned-to-a-keyboard-shortcut-and-now-doesnt-work – Takkat Jul 19 '12 at 06:50

Like carnendil has mentioned. There is a tab entitled, "Shortcuts" in the "keyboard" option from "all settings". Down to the left, there is the option, "Custom Shortcuts". Use (+) and (-) to add or remove shortcuts!
For instance, to add the shortcut for (System monitor), press (+), a small prompt will ask you to enter the short cut name and command,
Name: System monitor
Command: gnome-system-monitor
After pressing apply, the short cut will be disabled. Click on the word (disable) and press on the keys combination for your shortcut.

I might be wrong, but I think you are looking for Keyboard in System Configuration. There you'll find a tab named Shortcuts.

Nope, there's no option there to add your own shortcuts to the system :/ – Brian Leishman Jul 18 '12 at 22:37
