Remapping a function key in OS X.

Can someone tell me how to remap, say, F11 so that whenever I press it, it tells VLC to pause the thing it's playing, regardless of whether VLC is the app currently on top?

(I'm sure I could work out how to do this myself, but it would probably take several hours and involve cursing. So even if you can't answer the question off the top of your head, any suggestions that would set me on the right track would be most welcome.)

Update: 2shortplanks and caramel_betty and frobisher figured it out! Yay!
