map button for close program?

After, oh, more than ten months of owning an Axim, I just made the phenomenal discovery that the hardware buttons can be remapped to open different programs.

Yes, I know, I'm cool.

And the Home button now does something besides contribute symmetry to the button layout (mapped it to WMP9 :))


Anyway, I tried mapping the record button to "OK/Close," which is all well and good, but I noticed it doesn't actually close any programs, it just minimizes them.

Is there a way to get it to close stuff for real?

Also, the jog dial tends to get mapped to the same functions as the up/down/center of the D-pad.....is there any way to get them mapped separately? I've only tried this in WMP9, so i dunno if its only that program or what, but I seem to recall the same thing happening with at least one game...

As far as I know you can't map the jog dial and the D-pad differently.
As for closing programs with a button, you will probably have to get a program like Vito's button mapper, I use it and love it! It comes with a trial period. It takes a little getting used to but works great.
You could also use something like icbar and it will close your programs instead of minimize them.
I have combined the icbar and the VBM, I use a "stylus tap emulation" that taps the close part of my icbar, that way no matter what program I am in it will close it for me.
Hope this helps.
