fn Description

Free AppleScript app that will switch between the Apple Fn keys and the hardware shortcut keys on your keyboard The purpose of "fn" is simple. All Apple keyboards have an excellent set of hardware Fn keys to control things like brightness, volume, etc. But sometimes, those keys that are usually so helpful, can get in your way.There are many different high end applications out there that will use the F1-F12 (and beyond) keys as very important shortcuts. Apps like After Effects, Maya, and so on.Well "fn" just makes jumping back and forth between your normal everyday workflow (where the hardware fn keys are very useful), and your higher end App workflow. "fn" is just an App that merely changes a System Preference in one click, put the item in your Dock, launch it, and it will run quickly and turn ON/OFF the hardware shortcut keys. (If they are off you merely use the (fn) key + the normal hardware shortcut key as you normally would if this setting was checked).This Application was created using Applescript, and can be examined by simply right clicking on the App and clicking "Show Package Contents" where you will be able to find the AppleScript, among other things.
