Is there any way I can quickly cast a spell, or maybe even just recast the spell that I previously cast?
One difficulty I'm having in combat is that I'm kind of slow to click the runes for spellcasting, and I find that it slows down the overall attack speed of my party, since if I'm fiddling with the runes, I'm not swinging swords in the front ranks. First I have to right-click on the mage's empty hand to open the runes screen, then I have to click on the rune(s) I need for the spell, and then finally I have to click the button on the right to finally cast the spell. This is a lot of clicking.
Is there anything I can do to make casting or recasting of known spells more quick and automatic, or do I have to manually input the runes for the spell every single time I cast it? Are there any keyboard shortcuts?
Regardless of how or when you discover the rune combo for a spell, you can still only cast spells that your skill is high enough to have "unlocked", and your skill text won't tell you what spell it lets you cast until after you've already cast it. It's a bit frustrating, since I took earth magic hoping it would have some a low level healing spell, as many games seem to tie "healing" to "earth". Instead, I discovered through play that the first Earth spells is actually "poison cloud".

According to the post of a game's developer on Something Awful forums, it is not yet implemented, but it might be feasible for the spells to be assigned to numpad keys.
As with all such statements, it is not more than a speculation and might or might not be really coming with a future update.
