I absolutely do not see the need of a toolbar when you can do everything with keys in your keyboard.

Screenshot? Press PRT SCR
Pause? Press PAUSE and so on...

The things i try to learn in the most used emulators are the shortcut keys for pause, print screen, save and load save state etc.

Btw WinUAE has one of the strongest key remaping options in any emu i use. And you can do now what you're saying. You can remap to your keys or controllers most used functions as controlling sound, floppies, emulation speed, mouse, joystick and keys remapping and the list goes on and on. With a bit of work on your side you can have your perfect environment without using a mouse at all.

Check the input panel and see what i'm talking about.

And with a real Amiga chassis remember you only had keys to make CTRL+Amiga+Amiga to reset. You don't need a toolbar for that also in WinUAE
