I suppose the "right" way to make a "hot key" is to patch _KeyTrans, which supposedly gets called for all keyDowns. You could also patch _MenuKey if you include command in the hot-key modifier combination. All you have to do there is to OpenDeskAcc() and be done with it. h+@nada.kth.se Jon W{tte -- "The IM-IV file manager chapter documents zillions of calls, all of which seem to do almost the same thing and none of which seem to do what I want them to do." -- Juri Munkki in comp.sys.mac.programmer
