Uhm, well the binding of the Enter key to the blue button is done in
the lowest level of the interpreter on the Macintosh, not in the image
so there is no good way to rebind it.  You could rewrite some of the
low level stuff in InputSensor to rebind it but be carefull, that's
deadly code you're dealing with, one false move and you've got a frozen
image.  As far as rebinding it to the control key, you couldn't do that
anyway since Smalltalk expects to be able to see the control key as
a sepearate modifier on any key stroke or mouse click - granted you
could change the way the image deals with such things, but it sounds
like a bit of a pain.  Oh, the reason why it doens'twork on a macPlus
is the new keyboard, using a Mac or Mac 512 keybaord with Smalltalk on
the macPlus should work fine.  It seams that they changed the physical
key numbers on the new keyboard, and the enter key moved!  Yes, the
Smalltalk group is working on the problem, we'll let you know.
