Update for UK keyboards #48

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
I have attached a replacement exe file for the main uawaks.exe program.
You will first need to stop your existing uawaks from running and then 
over-write it with the file below. (It is usually found in C:\Program 
Files\Unofficial Apple Wireless Keyboard Support folder)

Mostly all I have done is to collate other peoples work, so thanks to everyone 
who had an input.

The eject button is now a delete.
The ss (button under the esc) is now a #
The @, £ and " now behave as expected.
The Euro € is the right alt + 4 combination.
The right alt no longer locks the Ctrl button.
and lastly the Windows key + S will run a program called sleep.exe. To get this 
to work just download sleep.exe from http://www.gammadyne.com/cmdline.htm, put 
it into the root of your C drive then pressing Windows + S will suspend the PC.
I am working on the ctrl / fn swap, but its not proving to be easy (as others 
have said) so if any-one has this working let me know and I'll add it, I have 
already put the code in to select/deselect it.

Hope it all works for you :-)

Hi, I think the most of it works - besides I'm not able to write @. I can write 
€. Using Swedish (SWE) layout on XP however.

Hmm, just taken a look at Swedish keyboards, no wonder its different you have 3 
types of A just for a start! Have you tried either shift or Right Alt + Ä 
(that is the key where the @ on an UK keyboard), also try Right Alt + 2? Its 
possible to make a macro to do this, so that it would give an @ on any language 
keyboard, but the trouble with doing that is it may interfere with other 
programs' shortcuts.

Hi - yep, we've got plenty of A´s on our layouts, however I couldn't get the @ 
to work :(
