You can find out about the keymap by reading the I'm waiting for my doubletalk pc to come so I can do that.

I can read the one at the botom of the tutorial, but I want to know where this is actually stored so I can understand how to add my own functions to it. Perhaps I didn't phrase my initial question well or I had to many questions in one message. Thanks, Chris
