Javascript: handling keyboard shortcuts with jQuery

Last few years the JavaScript frameworks are big part of our web sites. I strongly recommend the usage of tools like jQuery or MooTools, because they will save you a lot of time and problems. These days I needed to create a keyboard shortcut for one of the projects that I'm working on. I wanted to catch the Ctrl+Shift+F9 combination.
