Bill, I too have a TimeSaver, and while I agree with much of what you say, I feel it only fair to point out a small inaccuracy. The coonector on the OUT port of the TimeSaver is exactly the same at that on the IN port, as well as that on the keyboard and the keyboard connector on the Amiga itself. Thus, it can hardly be called nonstandard. I did not test TimeSaver as extensively as you appear to have, but did find that it got in the way more than was worth any benefits. I too dislike the usurping of the HELP key, and also dislike multiple keystrokes for macros, which have the effect of putting me into different "modes". This has led to some screaming at the thing when I forgot that I had used the HELP key for someting, then got some VERY interesting results when I tried to do other things. The net of it all is that I disabled it, and then disconnected it the next time I had the A1000 out of its cubbyhole. Have you tried the Funckeys program by Anson Mah? It is one of the best, and is shareware. It can be found in DL 9. Regards, Larry.
