Hi, I am working on some preference controls, and I need a little help working out a way of getting the information of the Keyboard_settings preference save file. If anyone has any experience of doing something like thiy, please can you contact me off the list to discuss it? I presume its just a flattened BMessage, but I need help working out the structure of it so I can read it into my program. Thanks Andrew Edward McCall mccall@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -- OpenBeOS - Join the revolution NOW!! http://www.openbeos.org/
