[comp.sys.mac] FKEY 0 question

long@mcntsh.enet.dec.com (Richard C. Long) (01/16/90)

Using RESEDIT, I created an ExitToShell FKEY (hex A9F4) and assigned it number
0, placing it in a file that Suitcase II opens on startup.  I can invoke this
key with Command/Shift/0, but when I try to define it as an FKEY Quickey
(Quickeys 1.2, BTW), it does not appear in the menu.  Now, I can easily alias
Cmd/Shift/0 to something else, but why does this happen?  

I tried duplicating that FKEY as a lower number, and it worked.  I tried
duplicating it as a number > FKEY 0 (like 10), and Quickeys wouldn't see it.

So, for now it appears that Quickeys ignores FKEYs numbered > 9.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Richard -

What model Mac are you using? On SE's, command-shift-0 is used to eject a
third floppy, as this model can indeed have three floppies. Could be some
interaction with this System FKEY. Worth a shot. I don't have an SE handy
to check this on, so good luck... -Russ
