I envision this as a feature of the keyboard rather than SA. It would allow more versatility to work with other programs. An open API would be necessary. Thinkgeek.com would be the marketplace of choice for this type of item. Just need start up capital and a programmer :-).

The part you want to see as extra is that IF the service is running, that you can start the app either, correct? Dirk Bulinckx. From: Servers Alive Discussion List [mailto:salive@woodstone.nu (mailto:salive@woodstone.nu)] On Behalf Of ian.g...@okieurope.com (mailto:ian.g...@okieurope.com) Sent: Monday, March 02, 2009 10:31 AM To: Servers Alive Discussion List Subject: [SA-list] SA multiple instances Just a random thought... We run SA as a service. We occasionally get the scenario where someone (by ignorance or accident) connects to the SA box via RDP (not as console) and runs a second occurrence of SA as a programme, which of course causes big problems. I know that other people on the list have this issue occasionally. Would it be possible to only allow one instance of SA to run? I sometimes see other programmes come up with a message to the effect of "you are already running this programme" - could SA be configured to do this?
