   Well, just to plug my own program, check out Shortcuts, published
on SoftDisk G-S #46. It allows you to assign all sorts of actions
(telling the finder to open/launch things) to the function keys. As
to mapping keps to another, I had a small macro package, but it was
slightly buggy before I left. I've tried to restablish email with
SoftDisk, but GEnie tends to eat email. If you're interested in this
sort of thing, but them.
