Change keyboard bindings in your favorite Cocoa application.
ReKey uses one of the many interesting features of Mac OS X's Cocoa to allow you to change the keyboard shortcuts in any Cocoa application, without actually modifying the application itself. All your modifications are saved in the preferences file of the application, and therefore do not affect other users of the system. Because of limitations in the Carbon Application Programming Interface, you can only modify the shortcuts of Cocoa applications. Cocoa applications are Mac OS X applications that only run on Mac OS X, and do not have Mac OS 9 compatibility.
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />It's nice to find a 2 year old app that's only 48k yet still does what it says it does. The interface is not straightforward, but it gets the job done. You must retype the menu item you want to reassign a key to--there's no GUI for selecting the menu item. But if you type it right, click "Save", and relaunch the app, there's your new shortcut. The "readme" says to choose "Save" from the File menu even though there is no such menu or menu item, but the Save button in the upper right of ReKey's window works fine once you spot it. All in all, a worthwhile download.
