[comp.sys.mac] quickkeys vs smart alarms

riddle@emory.uucp (Larry Riddle) (11/07/87)

I downloaded the recent posting of the QuickKeys demo and put it
in my system folder. It worked fine. However, I noticed that the
Smart Alarm DA did not work. When I tried to open Smart Alarm, 
nothing happens the first time. If I tried it again, the apple would
remain highlighted, clicking anywhere on the screen would cause
the bell to beep, and only by hitting the return key would I get
out of this loop. I reinstalled Smart Alarm and the same thing
happened. Finally I removed QuickKey from the system folder and
Smart Alarm would work again.

Coincidence, or is there some kind of incompatability between these
two? Are others running QuickKeys and Smart Alarm at the same time
with no problems? Any ideas or help would be appreciated. Thanks.

To get Smart Alarms to work with QuicKeys, go into the system with ResEdit and
change the .Rmdr INIT to something greater than 31. Then it should work fine;
mine does. I think the commercial version of QuicKeys comes with a note to this
effect.
