Shortcut keys for dialog buttons

Post by uhhu »

I think there is an old mac (7.x) extension that automatically added keyboard shortcuts to dialog/alert buttons (first letter). Does anyone remember the name?

There are many I've seen before , actually . I just can't remember .

There's one I'm using now in 6.0.8 in Mini vMac . EscapeDammit! lets you use the ESC in some dialogs to represent 'Cancel' .

Keys! is much better than ButtonKey - thank you! I've switched to Keys! now.
