Simple mod that shows you a keyboard layout with buttons that have some sort of action associated with them highlighted.
Use /br show to show the keyboard
Use /br hide to hide the keyboard (or click the X in the upper right hand corner)
See screenshots.

Sorry, there are currently no optional files available.
How incredibly useful is this? My vote? Many. Many useful. Or a Lot useful. Simple, and straightforward and helpful. What a mod should be. perhaps, well... ok, I'm tired and in a goofy mood, but I thank you for the creation of the mod and look forward to checking out my bindings without scrolling for three days to get to the bottom of the list only to forget what was at the top. Seriously. Thanks.
It takes some hackery to get the dvorak layout configured. I figured there were like a total of 5 people who used dvorak and of those 5 people none would actually download :-P
How would you have me add support for it? What would my support do?

Since the interface shows you where you have things bound currently, a person could click or rightclick on a button, a drop down menu will pop up with a list spells/actions/macros from a characters spellbook (Similar to Spellbinder) For modifier bindings, I would suggest a person be able to click the modifier buttons on the interface, it will highlight the modifier button and highlight red all buttons that are currently bound under that modifier, then they could simply click the button they want to bind and the same drop down of action/spells/Macros would pop up. I hope I didn't ramble too much in my description and my idea is clear.
Interesting idea. How useful would it really be though, for the amount of work required? And how intuitive is this configuration?

its pretty clear to me what it does. It doesn't require a wall of text to explain it.
here let me explain the description I read:
It is a simple display of your keyboard that highlights (in red I believe) what keys you have bound to something. It apparently reads your keybindings and shows the buttons that have a binding.
I could see it coming in handy only once in a while when you are laying out a different Keybinding scheme on your keyboard.
Don't Tweek... just relax.
Of your 5 total posts you wasted a post on something like this? More power to you.
AS far as the original comment is concerned, I was lazy. I have never been one to be overly verbose in my addon descriptions but I hope the 2 screenshots I have uploaded provide enough of an explanation.
Let me know if you think I should write more for the description.
--edit--
5 forum posts, 6 file comments, my mistake.
