http://www.cockos.com/forum/showpost...1&postcount=12 is the starting point for this.

Here is a self-explanatory AutoHotKeys example script - comments for each line follow semicolon.

Rwin::^r ; maps right "windows" key to Record
F4::^m ; maps F4 to Show / Hide mixer
F5::^!z ; maps F5 to Show / Hide history window
F6::^!p ; maps F6 to Show / Hide performance window
F7::^!x ; maps F7 to Show / Hide Media Explorer window
F8::!r ; maps F8 to Show / Hide Routing window
F9:: ; maps F9 to go to end of project, start recording, and insert marker with name dialog
Send {end}^rM
return

I have posted an .exe example of the script at http://www.stashbox.org/uploads/1150...Reaperkeys.exe - this should work at least on XP machines. You don't need AutoHotKeys installed to run it. In the tray you should see an H icon - right click on that to exit or disable the script and restore your keys to normal.

Seems fine here but done in a hurry, so... at your own risk.

I'm outta here for a few hours... meanwhile, enjoy!
