Correct. I think it is possible to assign "Enter twice" to a keybinding 
if you use TextMacro. However this would not work for your purpose.

I may misunderstand you but do you want to typeset a tex file with 
'include as according to previous run' more easily, without hitting 
Enter in TeXShop console? If so, a workaround would be to create 
something like noaskinclude.sty.

Though I'm not familiar with TeX macros, I just tried this idea which 
seems to work.

1. Duplicate askinclude.sty as noaskinclude.sty.

2. Open noaskinclude.sty with a text editor and locate the following 
lines:

\typeout { }
\typeout {Enter file(s) to include (separated by commas and no spaces),}
\typeout {or enter * for all files, or enter - for none, or}
\typein  [\inputfiles]{press Return if this run is the same as the 
last.}

3. Change them to

%\typeout { }
%\typeout {Enter file(s) to include (separated by commas and no 
spaces),}
%\typeout {or enter * for all files, or enter - for none, or}
%\typein  [\inputfiles]{press Return if this run is the same as the 
last.}
\def\inputfiles{\empty}

4. Save noaskinclude.sty and put it in an appropriate folder so that 
latex can find it.

5. Execute mktexlsr;

Then, you can typeset your tex file with 'include as according to 
previous run' with just command-t by changing

\usepackage{askinclude}

to

\usepackage{noaskinclude}
