This product has been in beta since 2006? I don't think that's how a beta cycle is supposed to work.

Spark just keeps getting better. Appears to work perfectly in Leopard 10.5.6, I use it constantly.
Fantastic. Keep up the good work!

Spark CommentaryKill QuicKeys! - Version: 3.0b8, 9/19/2008 03:51PM PST

Oh how I HATE QuicKeys! I'm praying to all that is holy, good and divine in the universe that Spark has what it takes to replace QuicKeys!

A truly excellent piece of software. Elegant, stable, lightweight, fast. A fantastic hot-key program. Bravo! I've written tons of hot-key scripts and Spark has been rock stable and lightning fast to respond. Forget the buggy and kludgy QuicKeys, iKey, and Keyboard Maestro. This is free, and it is awesome.

Thanks for getting me free of Quickeys. Spark is much quicker and SO much easier to use than QK.

Spark ReviewTotally works in Leopard, and not only that... - Version: 3.0b5, 3/5/2008 02:04PM PST

...finally the "Launch and Hide Others" works with my Finder shortcut! Man, I've been dying for that for years.

I really appreciate Spark's stability and small footprint. I keep trying others, and keep going back to it. Great stuff!

I used to use Spark all the Time in Tiger and just now downloaded it for my new Intel Imac with OS 10.5. It works just fine for me.

Spark Troubleshooting ReportDoesn't work in Leopard... - Version: 3.0b4, 1/27/2008 12:00AM PST

The latest version 3.0b4 doesn't work with Mac OS X Leopard (default keyboard input is set to Latvian (Eastern European)). I use Command+Option+Ctrl+some_letter_key to launch applications. For example:
Command+Option+Ctrl+a - Address Book
Command+Option+Ctrl+i - iCal
Command+Option+Ctrl+t - iTunes
Command+Option+Ctrl+p - Pages, etc.
In Leopard most of the letters with these 3 keys (Command+Option+Ctrl) don't work, I just get beep sound nad that's all.
Any hope to get Spark working in Leopard?
