  I looked into the code and I think you should be able to get into it if
  you have a good binary editor. Use the editor on HOTDLL32.DLL. Search for
  the string JUMPKEY.INI. Not far after this is the table with the key
  values. I see the table strarting at offset 03f40x Each two-byte value in
  the table represents a single key. The first byte is the shift-key
  bitflag, and the second byte is the key scancode. The bits for the shift
  keys are:
     ALT=1
     CTRL=2
     SHIFT=4
  The table entries are ordered just like the list of keys. You'll see a
  pattern of several 00xx, followed by many 01xx combinations (these are
  the alt-xxxx), followed by some 00xx, then 02xx (ctrl-xxxx), 04xx
  (shift-xxxx) and then finally 06xx (these are the ctrl-shift keys). Try
  changing the 06xx to 03xx. This will change any of the ctrl-shift-xxxx to
  ctrl-alt-xxxx.  (03xx = ctrl-alt; 05xx = alt-shft) Jumpkey searches the 
  table for a match, and then has another table with the jump session titles 
  you configured.  To save you the trouble, I coded the change and compiled 
  it. Attached you'll find a zip file with  two modified DLLs, hotdll32.a-s 
  and hotdll32.c-a . The a-s version uses alt-shift instead of ctrl-shift. The
  c-a vsersion uses ctrl-alt instead of ctrl-shift. Just rename the one you
  want to use to hotdll32.dll. The configuration dialog still will indicate
  ctrl-shift, and I bet the configuration panel itself will not work, so
  you had better configure before you use one of these DLL's

  Not likely. I tried this a few years ago and I never got it working
  right. I usually use Windows NT now, and I have a version of JumpKey
  coded for it as well. NT provides a better hook mechanism, so there is no
  fullscreen problem.

  I have submitted the NT version (runs on 95 as well) to the IBM DevCon CD
  folks. Perhaps they will make it available soon. I'll send you a copy by
  mail if you are interested.
