I don't know if I did something, or the install did something, but my keyboard mapping shortcuts don't work now that I am on ver. 7.0. In addition, I can't seem to find the equivalent actions in the settings>Mappers tab that would allow me to re-create them.
I had assigned "Alt"+"L" to clear the left deck, and "ALT"+"R" to clear the right deck, but I can't find any "clear deck" commands in the current Actions list. Any ideas? I am running Vista SP2 in case that matters.

use deck left unload and deck right unload.. to "clear" the decks.

Thanks djdad. That did the trick.
I wish the complete list of commands (http://www.virtualdj.com/wiki/VDJscript_verbs.html) could somehow be accessible in the Mappers tab window (maybe as a Help pop up) without going to an external web site.
Any idea why I lost my original mappings after the ver. 7 install?
Also, is VDJ script used in the search bar? Or is that a different script language?

There is context sensitive help in the mappers tab - Start to type a verb (E.g: play) and matching verbs should be listed in the window below. Click on one to see its help text.
If you upgraded from VirtualDJ v5 or earlier then the mappings used is a different language and is not compatible. VirtualDJ will attempt to update keyboard mappings to the new format.
If upgrading from v6 to v7 then your old mappings should be retained. You should always make a regular backup of your configuration, especially before performing an upgrade. You can do this by making a copy of the folder My Documents\VirtualDJ
Also, make sure that you backup your music collection.

Where is this directory for the Mac version?

On Mac, the VirtualDJ home folder is /users/YOURNAME/Documents/VirtualDJ or for new installations of VirtualDJ v7.0.3 or above it is /users/YOURNAME/Library/VirtualDJ
