Description:
KeySwitch is a basic key remapping utility which remaps keys on an app by app basis. Simply choose the program who's keys you would like to remap then add any number of key swaps. The best example of what to use KeySwitch for is the Capture application (Camera or Camcorder).
Simply adding the Capture application then remapping the side key to the 5-way center key allows you to take pictures using the side key (in addition to the center key still). In fact, the Capture application is added to your list automatically if there are no other programs in the list.
Note: Using KeySwitch *will* cause a slight performance drop in the apps you use it with. For simple apps like the Capture program it's not noticeable at all. In programs with heavy keyboard usage it will be noticeable.
Other Note: The names of keys are limited to Centro, Treo 650, and Generic (which is basically just Centro). If you'd like to add the key names for your device download the BoraWare KeyFinder utility. You can then record the names of each of your hard keys and have them automatically emailed to BoraWare.

Doesn't work on my centro, I remap the keys but nothing changes, also the keys I choose show up in all the program lists.

You can actually use this to map special functions to the slider on the Tungsten T's, one for opening, another for the closing action, which is really cool, like using it to reload your weapon in a shoot-em-up game or something, just move the slider when prompted to press a "button" (the slider is actually two virtual hard buttons in itself). Only problem is that the program dosen't work on buttons that are already patched by an application when it is started. For example, I can't map over the nav left and right functions with dummy ones in pTunes (gets really annoying in the old version when you have it in your pocket). Would be nice if that were fixed, but otherwise, this is a very useful program, great on my T3.
