Thanks for the suggestion (and the compliments!) Dylan. I'll bounce that idea around here and see what others think. I got the idea for the current icon from Salling Clicker. Both icons are roughly the same size, though I understand the space crunch when it comes to the menu bar.

I understand. Looking forward to it.

I have an idea for the menu item, if you haven’t thought of something already… how ’bout just a dot with lines radiating outward like a sun? It would be much more visible from far away, would take up less space and fit in with the other menu items. Just a thought.

Thanks for the great work!

Posted this on the other article, so asking again with clarification. Anyone got the AirClick working with any OSX below 10.3 such as 10.2.8 or 10.1.5? I’d like to give it a try using a beige G3. Would smudging the install work? Reach me at thomaswatts AT fewpb DOT net

No, sorry, no ETA. I’m spread a bit thin at the moment and working on something which compliments the existing AirClick software. I can’t say much about it yet, but I think (hope) people will be pleased when they see the results.

Do you have an ETA?

Is the repeated keystroke issue fixed?

Have you found a way to control slideshows in Front Row?

What about some kind of a GUI for editing the functions?

There are a few wrinkles to work out yet, but yes the next release will have it.

Is an official Front Row plugin going to be added to the next release? I think it could be popular.

I’ve made the attempt to modify Cursor Keys to do the trick for me, but i’m just not experienced enough to make it work. I’d much rather use an RF instead of infrared on my machine.
