Hi, sorry I haven't contributed much to the forums yet but I have a question about configuring the extra F hotkeys on my new keyboard. I'm using a macbook with snow leopard and I finally got the external keyboard with the numberpad.
I'm often typing in equations into the computer but its a nuisance to always type "x^" and "( )" constantly from the numberpad. I tried playing with the system prefs for the keyboard but I can't find a way to map F16 to be "x^", F17 to be "(" and F18 to be ")".
Any suggestions?
When I try to map it out, I think its supposed to be a command. Is it possible to make it just reconfigure the key location?
