DANA SUTTON  Launch KM. Select Macros panel. Click the + square at the foot of the page. This brings up the Macro Editor window. Click record. Navigate to the menu item of your choice (if this involves recording extra steps as KM observes you, you can manually remove them from the list). Choose "Save" Then go to "New Trigger > Hot Key" and select a keyboard command, one that doesn't conflict with one you already have. Save that too, give your Macro a name, and you're good to go. As far as I know, this feature works with all versions of KM so you don't need the latest and the greatest to achieve . Note: this allows you to create new keyboard equivalents for menu commands, but it doesn't allow you to assign new keyboard equivalents for existing ones or remove preexisting ones (although you can do these things from within programs with such ones as Office and Dreamweaver).   (Version 1.4.3b4)

MARK_CAIRNS  "Silliness"? what? huh?

Any chance of Unsanity getting off the drugs and onto some Red Bull by speaking plain English for the rest of us bought-and-paid-for MenuMaster users to understand what is actually fixed or improved instead of talking this nonsense.  (Version 1.4.3b4)

EASER  Can you please tell me which macro in KM I use to do this? I'm still using version 2, so it might not be in that version. Thanks.  (Version 1.4.3b4)

DANA SUTTON  I used to depend on Menu Master. Then it broke under Leopard and it has taken, what is it, ten months for the developer even to produce a beta? Since I had relied on MM for my work, I was forced to look around for a substitute,and I discovered that the recorded Macro feature of Keyboard Maestro allowed me to assign new keyboard equivalents to menu commands. Keyboard Maestro is a program, not a system-modifying hack, so it's a lot more benign, and I don't have to worry about going through this hassle again because of Menu Master possibly breaking with Snow Leopard or some other future version of OSX. I've found a very satisfactory substitute for Fruit Menu, too, so I don't think I'll be having any more to do with Haxies.  (Version 1.4.3b4)
