Right now, I have a button on my Logitech Harmony remote mapped to a keystroke sequence: del, del, del, end. It works probably 4 out of 5 times, but I know it can be better.
I would like the ability to exit XBMC from any screen so I don't have to use a sequence to get to the homescreen, then quit.
Any ideas?

Hi,
you can use ESC to go to the home screen from any screen. When in home screen use the END key to quit XBMC

Well, I want to map something to the Harmony remote so that it will work every time. I know I have to keep the remote pointed at the receiver so that all commands are received and XBMC actually quits.
My first post was a mistake, the remote is mapped to sequence: esc, esc, pause, end.

Can you map multiple keys? If so, how about mapping it to Alt + F4 (assuming you're on Windows) or Cmd + Q (on a Mac)?

ummm... I use the "power toggle" button on my harmony and my box goes into and S3 sleep like I designed it to, if not setup for sleep it would just power off, but in S3 I just press the "power toggle" again and my HTPC wakes from its sleep-full slumber
non of this stringing del del del esc esc together bullshit.
