Hi to all,

i've got more or less the same problem here. I am trying to define a 
hotkey which should replace one value by another in a text-editor 
(notepad, psdad, winword and others. But i can't get my *keys-command 
to work. It seems that marking characters with {shift} or + doesn't 
work. I tried several combinations. For example: 
{shift}{end}{shift}   works like {end} only
{shift}{right}{shift} works like {right} only

I also tried with +{end} and +{right} without success.
I also tried sending the *keys-command from a small topmost bar to 
avoid key-handling-problems.
I also tried different applications.

Any help much appreciated.

regards
