Hi - this may sound like a stupid question, but is there a key to pause the game with (as oppossed to having to click on the egg timer icon) when running For the Glory under Windows, but on a Macbook Pro (via bootcamp)? Thanks!
 
The standard pause keys are Pause and F9. You can remap the shortcut in Db\Interface\Buttons.txt if those don't suit you; look for BUTTON_PAUSE_ALTERNATE.

For example, this would set the space bar as your pause key:
Code:
press = {
	id = "BUTTON_PAUSE_ALTERNATE"
	bitmap = "empty.bmp"
	background = "empty.bmp"
	[b]shortcut = " " # <-- This is the line that matters[/b]
	lower = ""
	upper = ""
}

That's great, thanks. Is there are a way to remap the increase/decrease game speed buttons, I couldn't see this, but don't seem to be able to do this from the current keyboard setup, unless I'm missing something
 
Not currently, no. They're hardcoded to Ctrl/+ and Ctrl/-.
