Add a keyboard shortcut for Run Python File in VS Code

When setting up Python in Visual Studio Code for the first time, you may notice there is no keyboard shortcut for Run Python File.

Run Python File has no keyboard short cut by default

Thankfully, this is a travesty we can easy rectify.

To assign a keyboard shortcut, open the Keyboard Shortcuts menu by pressing Ctrl + K, Ctrl +S and search for Run Python File.

Double-click the command you want to modify and assign a shortcut. Here I am using Shift +' (back tick).

Set the keyboard short cut for running the python file

Hit enter to apply this shortcut to the action.

Switch back to your script and now a keyboard shortcut should appear next to Run Python File in the menu.

The new short cut is available to run the python file

A full two mouse clicks saved from now on.
