command-delete key remapping I have remapped one of my top-left keys (`) to the backward-delete key (⌫). However the command-delete shortcut (⌘+⌫) to "move to trash" works only on the original ⌫ key but not on the remapped key. Any suggestion?

I have remapped the key using Ukelele. I entered "&amp;#x0008"; as the identifier for ⌫.

[fyi: purpose is to symmetrize and reduce wrist pain; likewise I remapped caps-lock to enter/return; I'm a customized Dvorak keyboard user; first experience on a Mac]
Try using KeyRemap4MacBook instead. Save a file like this as ~/Library/Application Support/KeyRemap4MacBook/private.xml:

&lt;?xml version="1.0"?&gt;
&lt;root&gt;
  &lt;item&gt;
    &lt;name&gt;test&lt;/name&gt;
    &lt;identifier&gt;test&lt;/identifier&gt;
    &lt;autogen&gt;__KeyToKey__ KeyCode::BACKQUOTE, KeyCode::DELETE&lt;/autogen&gt;
  &lt;/item&gt;
&lt;/root&gt;


Then open the KeyRemap4MacBook application, press the ReloadXML button, and tick the checkbox for the setting.
