> Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I am in the process of upgrading from 0.23 to 0.24 and I noticed that the "System Exit Key" selection is no longer in the mythfrontend general preferences. This was a key feature for me (no pun intended), since I never exit mythfrontend during normal usage and sometimes like to keep hitting exit to get to the root menu. Also, I have my remote custom configured to send a bunch of exits with the off button so you can can just push off even if you're watching something. In other words, this was a really nice preference and now it seems to be gone. Anyway, I have searched the archives and haven't come up with much other than the release notes for 0.24 which say "System Exit Key - Replace with keybindings [24722]". The link to that ticket is dead. What does this mean, "replace with keybindings"? I have looked through the keybindings and I don't see anything related to system exit key.
> If anyone can help me restore the exit key to something like ctrl-esc, alt-esc, or really anything other than esc, that would be terrific and I can move to 0.24. If not, I'm stuck on 0.23. Thanks in advance!

Well, what do you know? I figured it out about 10 seconds after sending the email. I will post this for the benefit of anyone else searching for this feature. You now go to "Utilities/Setup" -> "Edit Keys" -> "Main Menu" and change the "Exit" action to whatever you want. Awesome!
