3. The file is usually empty. Just append the line F4=next
4. Save the file and run the command matchbox-remote -keys-reload or restart the N770
5. Enjoy the easy task switching by pressing the menu key!
Nice hack pycage. Thanks! But you know, it would also be great if someone were to write a tweak UI app that automates this and other minor hacks. I know there are still some nervous users out there fearful of "breaking" something.
