Q) What is it?
This tool is simply used to generate a list of key commands from the Cubase SX2 "Key Commands.xml" file.

Q) How does it work?
It just uses the original XML file, an XSL file (provided) and a compatible web browser (tested on WinXP only with IE 6 or later, Firefox 0.9 or later.)

Limitations: May not work with all versions of the SX2 key commands schema as I only tried it with two slightly diferent files.

Instructions:

1) Unzip the contents of this archive to its own folder.

2) Then COPY your "Key Commands.xml" file from the following location -

"C:\Documents and Settings\USER_NAME\Application Data\Steinberg\Cubase SX 2"

to the same folder as this readme file and the XSL file provided. (USER_NAME represents your Windows user name)


3) Open the newly copied version of the "Key Commands.xml" in Notepad by doing the following -

right-click it >> select "Open With" >> "Choose Program..." >> Notepad


4) Copy the line shown below (including angle brackets) to the first line of your "Key Commands.xml" file -



<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="convert-sx2-keys.xsl"?>



4b) If you are unsure how to do this view the "Example Key Commands.xml" file in Notepad for clarification.


5) Save the file (using File >> Save).


6) Ensure the file is in the same folder as the "convert-sx2-keys.xsl" file.

7) Open the modified "Key Commands.xml" file in your browser by dragging and dropping it on to Firefox or IE.

The file should now display a list of categories and commands.
