[Paul van der Eijk]

I agree that a generic prosign configuration utility will be the best solution.

>Thanks for the input Erkki.  I like your wishlist request too, and I'd also be interested in that Windows utility.  However, it seems to make sense to not have to memorize a whole different set of keystrokes when one goes between WinKey and the stand alone DX4WIN kbrd.  OTOH, I have been informed that other persons use WinKey with other kbrd software and are reluctant to change to DX4WIN's scheme.  Your suggestion turns a lose-lose to a win-win situation.
