How to modify the keyboard shortcuts in Eclipse IDE?

Title more or less says it all. Specifically, I've become increasingly annoyed that in order to run an ant script I have to use Alt+Shift+x, q. But I think If I had this power I would many things I would change the shortcuts for/add shortcuts for things that don't currently have them.

As a side note make sure your newly mapped Shortcut won't have any conflicts on the right of the Keys window/menu.

If so choose a combination that will work; doesn't have any conflicts with existing ( default ) settings.

Hope this helps.

In particular, edit the "Run Ant Build" command.

Pressing Ctrl + Shift + L will open the current list of defined shortcuts, again pressing Ctrl + Shift + L will open preference page from where the shortcuts can be modified.
