Hotkeys are used to center the screen at a userdefined position. They can help you keep track of where you are.
For example it would be smart to make a hotkey for a magma forge on level 122, while the rest of your fortress being on level 1 - 20. So you don't have to maniacly smash > to reach your forge.
To set a hotkey, enter the hotkey menu at the main menu to bring up the screen. You will then see a menu with all your current hotkeys. Move your screen to the 'view' you want to hotkey to, and then press the hotkey sequence you'd like to use for the location. This will get you to the right place on the menu. Then, press z and the hotkey will be all set up! Likewise, to change the name of a hotkey while in the hotkey menu, highlight the hotkey in question, then press n, then input a name and press enter.
To use a hotkey, simply press the corresponding F1 ... F8 or Shift + F1 ... F8
By default, the F1 hotkey starts out set to the position of your Template:L, with the name "Gate". All other hotkeys are unselected, and have a generic name ("Hotkey2").
