Actually, that's already happened. But some people like using khotkeys or other tools, so I continue to support both. |

I won't download them. As an avid user of GPL (and other open-source-licensed) applications, I strongly respect the rights of copyright holders to do as they see fit with their creations, including the licensing thereof.
If you respect copyrights, I would suggest that you remove these. |

At this point, I'm using khotkeys in conjunction with Media-Detect. I prefer the simple means of laying out application priority in Media-Detect.
Basically, khotkeys rocks at turning the keys on, but doesn't make it easy to change what the keys do based on which applications are open. I know it's theoretically possible, but with every application you add it becomes ridiculously more complex. I prefer being able to simply assign which apps have higher priority. |

Media-Detect shouldn't need an .ebuild file to install in Gentoo. As long as you have a working (and reasonably up-to-date) bash installed, the scripts work exactly as they are right out of the tarball.
There's nothing to be compiled or built. Just place the scripts in a directory on your path (or run the install script, which will do the same thing), and they should work.
Let me know if you have any problems. |

Thanks for your help, folks. I'm following both your suggestions, and we'll see how it turns out. :) |

First off, I'm not a developer. I don't know any developers, I've never worked with developers, I can't claim any distinguishing trait besides my charming personality and wonderful ideas that might make a developer think working with me would be a benefit to him/her or the work they do.
With that in mind... I've been trying to figure out who is in charge of the KDE keyboard module. I'd like to make the ideas that went into my Media-Detect script (shameless plug: http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=9760) a basic part of KDE functionality. I'd be willing to help.
I might even spring for pizza.
But I can't do it if I have no idea who to talk to about it. Does anyone have any idea who I should contact to make my dream (of devoting countless hours and sleepless nights to, in some small and relatively insignificant way, making KDE a better desktop) come true? |

Funny you should mention that... I'm currently in negotiations with the head developer to get Media-Detect integrated into lineak. It will probably be a little while before this functionality is part of that program, but it will happen (and believe me, I look forward to it).
Ideally, all the buttons on a keyboard will be configurable from a single, easy-to-use location, and you won't need a program like mine to make the keyboard respond intelligently, because that will just be a feature of the keyboard control module in KDE, like you mention. But I have no idea how soon that will occur.
I'm no programmer, and I wrote Media-Detect to scratch an itch. I don't have even the vaguest notion how complicated it might be to duplicate this script's features in lineak or in the keyboard module, so I'm just assuming at the moment it is VERY complicated, and basing my time estimates on that.
Does anyone from the KDE team want to help me with this? I'd love to be proven wrong. :) |

Some content in the README or something other than generic INSTALL instructions might be nice... |
