best shortcut keys for app launcher


Question

I'm working on an application launcher.

Right now Im trying to choose which combination of keys would be the best to make the application hide/unhide.

I know that the best decision would be to let the user decide for themself by adding a menu where they can customize this,

but for now I won't add this kind of menu because there's a few things I have to do first.

So what do you think would be the best shortcut keys for this?

I forgot to mention, please no mouse buttons, global mouse hook seems to make the application freeze for a second or 2 in c#

the current keys I use are ctrl+shift+Z but it's really not the best combination.

thanks, I've changed it to ctrl+space now.

I think ctrl alone would not be a good choice if the user cannot change the keys because if they wish to do ctrl+Z for example, it would invoke the application and do the undo command at the same time, this might irritate the user.

I wish to add a customization menu in the next release anyway, but for the first one, this will be the default command.
