10.4: Remapping keys in Mac OS X 10.4
Authored by: iloatheny on Tue, Aug 19 2008 at 4:51AM PDT
Is there a way to make arbitrary keys behave as modifier keys? I'm left-handed and my setup doesn't really allow me to have a full-size external keyboard, so I'd like to buy a USB numeric keypad and assign the frequently used modifier keys (cmd, opt, ctrl, fn and shift) to the keys on the keypad.

I looked into DoubleCommand and fKeys and Keyboard Maestro, none of which fit the bill. Perhaps there's a clever hack that strings multiple things together for a solution?

Anyone?
