Another thought--I remember using some Mac shareware utilities in the past that mimic the use of the Alt key in Windows to access menus. I'm sure these must still be available.

My problem now... the computer they gave me to use at work is a Mac. I have
little experience working with Macintosh computers in general, and almost no
experience with MacFin.


On WinFin I often use keyboard commands to switch tools (Alt-T-S: Speedy,
Alt-T-D: Mass Edit, etc.), and I have found no corollaries on the Mac. I
remember talk on this list a while back about the necessity of a third-party
macro utility to get such a task accomplished. From that conversation, I
seem to recall that "QuicKeys is the best." However, it comes with a fairly
hefty price tag these days ($100).


Are there any freeware (or significantly less expensive) alternatives? I
know I'll probably be able to get my employer to buy something for me if I
can demonstrate need, but I'd prefer not to ask for something as expensive
as QuicKeys after working there less than a month.
