I have played with the configuration menu item, and it does allow me to select from a set of actions. However, I don't see where it associates those actions with a key or something like that. (I can't tell you what that menu includes right now, since I've got the foot pedal in use on my laptop, and the footpedal program doesn't get past a permissions error message unless the foot pedal is plugged in.) Footpedal is a python script that resides in usr/bin and I can read it. Note that saying I can read it doesn't mean I understand it, yet. I have a python book, and I'll have to do some reading up to be able to understand what I'm seeing. On a related note, I found a project called transcribe, also written in python. It's located at: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~frederik-elwert/transcribe/trunk/files/head:/transcribe/ I have all the python files and will study those, too. I installed the package and it works. It's missing a couple of features, but with the source, and after I do some python studying, I may be able to add what I need. Combine that with the foot pedal code, and maybe I can get what I really want. -- Regards, Dick Steffens _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
