[Question] XalKeys

At the moment XalKeys is at v1.1 and supports US and UK keyboards. Is there any demand for other language-versions of keyboards or for extra symbols such as different currencies to be added?

Perhaps more support for mice, specifically the Mighty Mouse? At the moment there's squeezing of the side buttons and ctrl and alt modifiers for them so that the 3 exposé functions work on XP but perhaps people might have other ideas for more key+squeeze shortcuts for the Mighty Mouse?

If there's no demand then I'll just leave it at v1.1 but I was just wondering how people in the community felt?

the support sounds great, but i don't regularly use the expose clones.

is there functionality for xalkeys to use the 'forward' navigation, particularly for MM?

cheers

I could do an alternate version for people who don't use exposé clones where squeezing does the default back function and then holding down ctrl and squeezing can make it go forward. How's that sound?

@xalcore: that sounds great, hotkeys are always good :)

are both the squeeze buttons on either side of the MM only meant to navigate back? interesting..

Yeah, unfortunately both buttons only act as one button on XP. I've tried to get it to recognise them as different buttons, but alas, XP can not. But squeezing is still fun... ;) I was just a bit miffed that the default action was as a back function, and non-customizable. Which is why I spent ages looking for something like XalKeys and when I found there wasn't, I decided to make it. So there ya go, lol.
