Vice recording and shortcuts

Hi,

Recently I discovered the recording feature in Vice. It is a really great tool for troubleshooting. However, I miss a hotkey for starting/stopping the recording and actually it would be really cool if recording would just start automatically when setting a recording milestone. Anyone know about a way I could achieve this? I looked through the docs but didn't find any way to customize hotkeys, let alone create macros.

Second, it would be great to have a 'step by frame' feature. Sure I can use breakpoints in my code, but I really want this to be on the emulator level. Wondering if anybody has found a way to achieve that?

There is no step by frame feature but you can run the emulation at 2% speed which equals to a single frame per second (in PAL mode of course). Not exactly the same thing but it works for me.

I just found that you can export the keyboard shortcuts. Now I just need to find a way to import it again :)

The step by frame ... I forgot to mention that I really want it to freeze for every frame until I hit a key.

Ah... so easy. Editing the exported map and saving it in the same location (\c64 subfolder) - Vice grabbed it and my new keyboard layout is active. Oh the joy :)

@Groepaz: Everyone is able to know, only a wise man would teach. ;)

He mentioned he didn't want to use breakpoints. So, without using the monitor and 2% speed, what is the proper way to achieve that?
