yes, and is a godsend for crappy interfaces like NC 4.01! I have programmed
things like images on/off .. so i have one shortcut instead of one-thousand
clicks.
mac folks have regularly done what brent asked, particularly w/photoshop.
i'm guessing that suz knows far more about this product than i do. i know i
don't have a fraction of its functionality -- but the little i do use it
has made it worth its $100 or so.
