Override SHIFT + CTRL + Z in Notepad++

Hello I use Notepad++ for a lot of my development.
One of the things that I do not like about it is the way you perform a redo by pressing CTRL + Y and when you press SHIFT + CTRL + Z you get sub

Is there a plugin or a way to override the CTRL + SHIFT + Z hotkey in developing a plugin for notepad++ to make it perform the redo instead of the CTRL + Y?

Now I'm not trying to criticize the design choice for this, it's just that my fingers are short and fat and I have trouble pressing CTRL and Y at the same time.

Note: CtrlShiftZ is now natively supported by the current version of Notepad++. Just update to the newest version and you shouldn't need the instructions below.

To clarify GolezTrol's answer, here's the exact instructions:

  1. Menu bar Settings > Shortcut mapper

  2. Scintilla commands tab > double click SCI_REDO in the list

  3. Tick Shift and select Z from the dropdown > click Apply and OK

  4. Click Close on the Shortcut mapper window.

You could try the 'shortcut mapper' under the Settings menu.

It seems that this key is not found in the normal Main menu commands, but it's the SCI_REDO command in the Scintalla tab. Whatever that may mean. ;)
