How to know what keys are used to trigger expose?

The info is probably stored somewhere in ~/Library/Preferences/. Have you looked at the files in there (at least the com.apple... ones)?


One handy thing you can do to track down prefs is to use from your shell:

	defaults read find someWord

where someWord is whatever you think the key that stores the prefs will contains (e.g. dashboard, expose).


Another thing you can do is:

(1) defaults read > a.out
(2) Change a preference via System Prefs
(3) defaults read > b.out
(4) compare a.out to b.out to see what changes.

Unfortunately, for the case of reassigning a function key to my expose prefs, the difference showed up under 'com.apple.symbolichotkeys' and its values do not seem to lend themselves to easily find out what key does what:

36 = {enabled = 1; value = {parameters = (-1, 103, 0); type = standard; }; };
37 = {enabled = 1; value = {parameters = (-1, 103, 131072); type = standard; }; };
