  they got rid of the enter key?

  It's all subliminal... we're meant to lazily make the connection between Apple and Command so that soon we won't know the difference. We'll all be under Steve's control...

  • Anyway, we can trade too. Mine is a year old, 17" 2.33GHz– ismith1/2

  so, no one knows?
  is it even possible to replace the action of a specific key to operate as a different key?

  • btw: bump– TaylorB

  That used to be possible with ResEdit – but that was pre OS X. Not sure if there is an equivalent, but I’d be surprised if there isn’t.

  Don’t be so hard on TaylorB, _salisae_, he’s a stand-up guy. I am sure, if you read all the related posts since the wedding invite debacle, you would see that TaylorB and Spooky should be able to happily co-exist here on QBN.

  • I don't mind Taylor. I was actually trying to be funny by forcing a subtle parallel btwn the 2 topics.– _salisae_1/3

    I think he left b/c everyone went obsessive over him. Would give me the willies as well if every other thread was titled salisae!

    I am glad I missed the Wedding Invite thread. But I wish Spooky would come back too.– MrOneHundred3/3

  I'm used to Windows keyboard layout (use it all day at work too) and I need alt to be right next to the space bar, it gets me Polish characters.
  I also need a slightly different layout when using the external keyboard.
  I've been remapping with DoubleCommand, but I don't think it treats Command keys separately other than remapping small enter to something else - perfect for me, but you want the opposite :)

  I read KeyRemap4MacBook did though, but never tried it.

  • Actually, DoubleCommand was initially intended to remap the small enter out - hence its name!– rafalski1/2

    thank you heaps... I just might try this.– TaylorB2/2
