Patent

CA 2573914

Methods and means are provided that permit the operating state of a software application to be controlled with a single button on a keyboard. Data is stored that associate the application's operating states with predetermined successor states. In response to operation of the key, the current operating state of the application is identified, the stored data is accessed to identify a corresponding successor state, and the application is placed in the successor states. This arrangement reduces reliance on a mouse to select menu commands or the need to memorize keyboard equivalents.
