Here is my first plugin attempt :)

This plugin shows you all of your mouse and keyboard shortcuts in a convienient on screen display.

It is a shameless port of annotation. The really useful thing about the annotation plugin is that it is a cairo screen renderer. It makes it really easy for non-GL people like me to draw directly to the screen.

It is very rough and needs a tidy up, but it should work ok for most people at the moment.

To install download and unpack the tarball, then cd to the directory and type make install. The cheatsheet is activated by pressing Shift + Ctrl + Button1. Hold down the button to bring the cheatsheet up, release the button to hide it.

This plugin is available in my git repo, you can get it by typing this

git-clone git://people.freedesktop.org/~mike/cheatsheet

Gitweb is here

Sounds like a neat plugin, but unfortunately it's causing compiz to segfault and doesn't seem to provide useful output :(

Does it crash when you try to load the plugin or when you try to activate the cheatsheet?

Does annotate work for you?

Crashes when i activate it. Annotate works fine.
