Hmm, not sure what "double bursting" means. The IR LED is your basic flashlight -- you can turn it on and turn it off. There are no power settings that I know of. (And the timing of IR codes is fixed -- if you try to run them faster or slower, the target device will simply not understand what you are trying to say...)

2 - Where can i find the keyset for the NHENS (Digital Stream) DTX9900 ? Its a digital receiver.

Here's the conf file

Well, LIRC config files are themselves keysets, written down in a format that the LIRC server can understand. That particular keyset is using the standard "NEC" protocol, so it'd be easy to put into Pierogi as well; I'll go ahead and put it on my list.

ps: widget support would be helpful as well.
I'm not much of a UI guy, so I'm not sure what kind of widgets would work for this sort of thing. Pierogi, as it stands right now, is a bit complex for use as a widget, I would think. Still, I've got the IR device code almost completely separate from the GUI code right now, so it'd be easy to make a different front end for the app (or, for that matter, to port it to other hardware). It shouldn't be too hard to morph the program into some other form...

A super power off button would kick ***.
I'm pretty sure that already exists! I think it's called tv-b-gone or something like that...
