I have update my AltKeyHandler macro available from: http://homepages.paradise.net.nz/hillview/OOo/

I have just looked into this and it will take more time than I have available at the moment. > And dare I ask, Math, or Formula Editor, or whatever it is called? The only way I can see of having a generic routine that will work in all components is by using the clipboard. I find the API for the clipboard quite difficult to get my head around - it is on my to do list, but haven't got to it yet. > I'd like it for Calc at least, simply for this project / spreadsheet I'm > doing. The routines I have written do not work in Calc. Calc requires the Uno dispatch call InsertSymbol. In Writer if you don't specify an argument such as which font, it defaults to the current font, where as in Calc (1.1.4 for Linux) it crashes the app. This too would take more time than I currently have available.

My concern is that what I did was a quick and dirty hack, I am sure that it is not robust, and I haven't tested it thoroughly. I also think that it doesn't do all that it should. So, provided that comments to that effect go with it - you can make it available on the web. If enough interest is generated it may encourage me to write the thing properly.
