As a side effect this enabled the gtk HID to use multikey hotkeys (similar to those in gschem). I plan to ship at least two versions of menu files: the current one (modifiers) and a new one (that uses multikey heavily). I'm looking for volunteers to design the multikey layout (either changing the menu layout to fit multikey better or keeping it as is). Complexity: no programming background required; some experience with pcb and gschem is certainly needed (if you ever made a board that should be enough). There are 120 (lesstif) and 123 (gtk) key bindings with most of the functions overlap and some duplications (total 117 unique actions that has binding in either HID). My estimation on the total amount of work is between 4 and 9 hours, depending on some design choices. If you would like to join the fun, please contact me using email or chat at http://repo.hu/projects/pcb-rnd/irc.html Regards, Igor2
