I am currently using Dutty's newest rom. For the PTT button I am able to define what happens when I hold the button.
I would like to add the ability to close the program when I hold the OK button (button 4). Is there a good way to add the (hold) option in the button settings for all buttons?
Thanks,

For ALL buttons? Even the camera? Then what? How will you take pictures?
Have you searched? Someone wrote a program to do this, I read it yesterday. Try searching. I know you are new, but the search button will be yoru friend.
Well, I guess not all buttons. I just would like the option to configure two things for each button.
Through my search I found AE button. I tried that, but was unsuccessful to get it to work properly. I am attempting to remap the side OK button. Remapping the "OK" button only applies to the front OK button.
I think more of my issue is that I am trying to remap the side button, is that possible? I imagine many people would love to be able to close programs using this button.
I hate to be so wrong, so quickly.
My mistake, AE button is exactly what I was looking for it. I was remapping the wrong button. Although it isn't easy to use, I recommend it to all.
I would prefer a reg-tweek to add the option to the buttons dialog, but this will do.

This is the simplest and non 3rd party way to remap your buttons for long press. No need to install a program.
I use the softkeys sometimes on the main/normal/portrait keyboard, but I never use them when slided out - they are so tiny, and I always hit them on mistake.
Is there any way to easily disable them... ?
I use AE Button Plus, but I can't see any option in there to change these keys.
I use AEBPlus and set the Single press action to "None" and the Double press action to "Press Left/Right SoftKey" as appropriate. That way, if you accidentally hit the softkey while typing, you no longer do something stupid/annoying/disasterous like sending an incomplete email.
It means that the soft keys, when the phone is open or closed, will no longer register anything with just a single press but you soon get used to double pressing when you need to use them (or just use the on-screen softkeys).
Edit: Sorry, you said that you didn't see an option to change these keys in AEBPlus. There are options to change the Left and Right SoftKeys but these change the softkeys when the phone is closed as well as when it is open.
Is there a particular way to use the slide out keyboard? I find that when the key top part of the key is pressed, it might not register the input. However, if I press the bottom part of the key, the input will register. This is most evident with the C, Space bar and Back Space keys. Is there something wrong with my keyboard?
Regarding the UK version of this keyboard, I can't seem to figure out how to input '~' or '#' symbols with the key that displays '~', '#', '|', '\'.
Anyone figured this out?
'Pg up', 'Pg down', 'Home' and 'End' can be emulated by holding 'ALT' and pressing the directions but only sometimes.
e.g. 'ALT' + Left arrow will execute the back action in Chrome browser.
Same for 'Esc' when holding 'ALT' and pressing the top left button. This does not seem to be just the escape function when using VIM in a terminal.
This is quite frustrating because I purchased this setup to do server work and I use these keys quite often.
I don't know how to help you, but can't you install the KeyMapper app to set key combinations for the missing keys?
Currently holding the square screen button does a screenshot, rather redundant with Volume Down+Power. Any way to change it something else?
Never mind, it's the recent apps button/ alt tab button, whatever you want to call it. It's not the home button.
It can be changed in >Gestures>Screen Tools> Screenshot>recent apps key
