Hi Jon,

This was very interesting. I'm impressed at how much you can do with such tools and Blather.

I wondered, is there any particular reason why you don't define KEYPRESS as an alias. I think that's what I would have done. I'd have added it to ~/.bash_aliases which I source in my ~/.bashrc.

I'm not sure that it adds a great deal since aliases are just shortcuts and don't offer much else in the way of features. Just wondering.

The sed tricks link makes good reading by the way.
