Hi Thanks but I was thinking about this a bit more and I think it is better to translate the keys that come in with extended keys, so C-S-X is converted to C-S-x. I had originally worried about different keyboard layouts but I don't think many people will be affected and I will worry about that if they complain, so I'm going to change it to do that later on, which should mean this is unnecessary.
