A most clever work-around!
Clever, yes, but what does it achieve over assigning a key board command to, say opening a new Curves adjustment layer?
Equivalence, perhaps?
Ah, all righty, then. Thought I could learn something that I had overlooked. The only two commands I have self-created (horrible grammar) are ones to make both a Curves and Levels adj. layers.

Maybe I misunderstood your question. Are you asking why one wouldn’t use Curves instead of Brightness/Contrast?
No, but thanks for checking. Those latter controls are among the least useful in PS.
Note too that the OP’s initial
question was if he could create Keyboard Shortcuts using Photoshop 6, which doesn’t offer this feature as CS does. Donster supplied a unique work-around which may also work for other commands that lack shortcuts. Actually, re-reading your earlier question makes me think that an adjustment layer would probably be better in that it would retain the original image. However, I’m betting Donster’s shortcut would work on an adjustment layer too.
I must have overlooked the PS 6 part. And I tend to use Adj. layers for anything other than a jpeg I am about to send out for printing.
