How do you make a hotkey to launch a program?

[Steve Lim] “Is there a way to bind a hotkey to launch some program from the dock?”

Perhaps using the new Automator feature in Tiger, but as far as earlier versions of the OS, I believe QuickKeys was the only program that could enable this type of keystroke scripting.

But, this statement from that document:
“…You cannot define keyboard shortcuts for general purpose tasks such as opening an application or switching between applications.”

Which is what the OP wants to do.
