Key Xing CommentaryWhat happened to Key Xing???? - Version: 2.6.6, 5/21/2005 06:14PM PST

i've been searching for a quick n easy way to activate some scripts i've written on my mac, and it doesn't seem doable using keyboard shortcuts in system prefs - unless i'm looking at it wrong, system prefs 'keyboard shortcuts' seem to only apply to app's (I want to assign scripts to my unused F keys on my powerbook);

anyways, everything i'd read suggested that key xing was the grand thang - and when i check lumacode's site i see the message, "Unfortunately, we're not currently at liberty to say why Key Xing is no longer available, but rest assured that it's not a quality problem."

again, WTF? i will rain showers of pure bliss upon you and yours if someone knows something...i am

Key Xing CommentaryNo More Key Xing?! - Version: 2.6.6, 3/26/2004 05:34PM PST

Found this on Luma Code's Web site:

"Key Xing is no longer available. Unfortunately, we're not currently at liberty to say why Key Xing is no longer available, but rest assured that it's not a quality problem. The last version (2.6.6) of Key Xing is bug-free as far as we know."

Drag!

i've used key Xing for quite some time. it's easy to use, reasonably priced, does what it's designed to do, and doesn't cause problems. i've recommended it to many people.

Key Xing ReviewI've loved it - Version: 2.6.5, 8/16/2003 08:57AM PST

This does *everything* I need, is easy to use, looks good, and hasn't conflicted with anything in my system. It's just about the best $7 I've ever spent. I keep recommending it to people I know. I use a Wacom 3 button mouse, so I don't personally need the mouse controls, but it would be nice to see the functionality added.

thing key Xing lacks is the ability to assign keys to your mouse buttons and (recorded) mouse functions. It would be also great to be able to manipulate window-sizes with the keyboard: make them snap to full screen, to a specific size or position. This is why I use both Youpi-key and Key Xing, but Youpi has the most terrible interface one can imagine.

Key Xing for $7. I've been using QuicKeys for nearly a decade, and gladly paid their ransom for the OS X version of it, only to find that it sucks! Key Xing is a preference panel in System Preferences, so it always loads (unlike QuicKeys, which is an App and often doesn't load correctly). The only thing Key Xing doesn't seem to do is menus, and Luma says they're working on it. Everything else it does BETTER than QuicKeys!

be a bit specific about the instability. The first thing I noticed was problems with sleep (activated with Key Xing assigned to F12). It would sleep, then wake a couple minutes later. Then starts instability. totally unable to sleep, Finder sometimes crashes (menubar and mouse pointer disappear, no response from mouse or keyboard). I'm not sure if it's specific to activating sleep, not willing to continue "testing" at the risk of my HD. (Thank goodness for FSCK :) I hope for a fix soon, but won't use for now.

latest update 2.6.2 made my system really unstable! 2 total lockups requiring Hard Reboot, plus random funky behavior in Finder. Previous version was great, but with this I had to uninstall. :(
