so, i guess i'm a dirty liar. or i just jump to conclusions.

Xkeys DOES work under 10.4. pretty much just as it did before, which is fantastic and exactly what i want it to do. the problem relates to not being able to use F14/Scroll Lock and F15/Pause without modifiers on my PS/2 keyboard via a USB adapter. dunno why, but HotApp does the same thing. hope there's a way around...

i suppose i have a couple of issues, then:
- Apple-any Fkey makes Fkey Listener crash, regardless of something being bound to it. "OutOfBoundsException" - can't find a crash log.
- could be a little more robust. i love the feature set, but one thing that i'd like is to at least emulate all of the bezel-friendly Apple "special" keys: volume and eject, and perhaps brightness and contrast (never use them, though). anyone know how to do that in AppleScript?

otherwise, i love it as usual!
