[flirc = sign is sent by flirc in error]

I have resolved the problem by clearing all keys and starting again

[flirc = sign is sent by flirc in error]

I have alleviated the problem by using Autohotkey to disable the = keyboard key temporarily when I am using a remote control but this is just a work around

also it would be handy if there was a software on off switch with command line for Flirc so there would be no need to unplug it when not in use.

[flirc = sign is sent by flirc in error]

Here is the config

my_flirc_config.fcfg

[flirc = sign is sent by flirc in error]

When I press a key on a remote which has not been learnt by flirc = sign is sent by flirc, in other words if I use my TV remote when my PC is on with flirc plugged in I hear an error sound from my PC and if I have a text editor open = is typed also if the flirc program is open on the keyboard page I can see that the = keyboard key is being pressed. This happens with any remote that hasn't been used for flirc.
