¿Cómo agregar un método abreviado de teclado para alternar F1, F2, etc. como teclas de función estándar?

Para asignar un método abreviado de teclado a esta secuencia de comandos, puede crear un servicio en Automator.

DebescambiarServicereceivesanoinput.LuegoagregaExecuteAppleScriptypegatuscript.Guárdaloen~/Library/Services.

Una vez guardado, debes ir a System Preferences → Keyboard → Shortcuts y puedes encontrarlo en Services → General . Asigna tu atajo preferido allí.

Utilizando Karabiner , puede guardar este archivo como ~/Library/Application Support/Karabiner/private.xml :
