I did not do the transfer of keymaps with the CVS release.  I'mm sorry, I had 
the impression that the CVS release would not require this step...

Perhaps an option to capture the keymap at record time, and re-import it during 
playback?

It seems that a playback might not be very useful, if the keymap is not 
correct.  In other words, a successful playback seems to depend on a good (or 
even maybe identical?) keymap...?
