UGOM  Just downloaded the demo, quite sure I'm going to pay it when it expires.

I'm kind of professional writer and I love hearing the sound of the typewriting machine when I'm writing.

Just a couple of things: I can't see all of my apps in the exclude/include list (maybe it's because some app is "nested" into a folder, but it's annoying). Second: it would be great if I could set different sounds for different apps: i.e., a little click for normal apps, just for feedback, and the typewriter sounds for wordprocessing.

Anyway, great app.  (Version 1.1.9)

SFURST  While it doesn't quite solve the problem of "mushy" keyboards, the audible feedback really does help one's typing. As the author suggests, set the volume at just barely audbile. Especially nice on my G4 iBook.

Damned thing is rather addictive, actually -- I really notice its absence when I use my PC at the office.  (Version 1.1.6)

SECTION8  is it just me, or does this seem like it could get really annoying while typing a term-paper or something?  (Version 1.1.3)

COMPUTERNAUT  The latest update (1.1.1) adds a nice feature, the 'Do Include vs Exclude'. If I understand it correct, that option will simply switch the behavior from Excluding the apps you have in the list, into just Include those applications and let any other process be unaffected by Keyclick's sounds, right? My problem is that the "include-only" function doesn't seem to work. I can still hear sounds in all processes when I'm in "include-only" mode.

Also, are the Mouse Button click sounds "global", eg. not possible to set on a per-application basis? I would very much like to be able to set up Keyclick to, say, only be activated in TextMate and similar apps. Otherwise, I think the app is getting better and better, good job!  (Version 1.1.1)
