Is it possible to set _some_ of the function keys to their standard behavior, and others to Mac behavior?
e.g. I might want to use F1-F5 as function keys in emacs/TextMate, but have the rest of them to control ITunes, volume, etc. Of course I'd like to to accomplish this without having to use the Fn key.

Thanks!
Abhi

FunctionFlip should do this for you, but I couldn't get it to work on a unibody MB in the 30 seconds I tried for.

Ah thanks! It works great on the "early 2008" MBP.
