I've devised a method for binding grouped hotkeys to keyboard characters other than 0-9, via Visual Basic macros.
It would mainly benefit you by no longer requiring you to stretch your hand to select groups 7-10. You could instead bind those groups to say Shift+S, Shift+D, Shift+F & Shift+G.
Or if you routinely assign a particular number to the same group of units every game, you could bind it to the first letter of that unit to help you remember. For instance, if you plan on nuking and your ghosts are group #7, you could make Shift+G bring up the #7 group.
I've already experimented with making Shift+S call up my scourges and it seemed to come in handy during an incoming shuttle drop.
If anyone else wants to try it out, gimme a shout. Its prolly better if I explained the process personally.
