    What command is it to read keystrokes? (You'd think i'd remember by now)

    i cannot remember which command i use to read the keystrokes. i'm trying to get the key IDs so i can map my mouse correctly in firefox.

    Also, if you know of a good tutorial on mapping the back and forward actions to the mouse buttons on the side... add that in. i can't seem to find one that explains it very well.

    Thanks
