Config difficult to use on Apple II+ keyboard #86

Closed JamieB226 closed 4 months ago

JamieB226 commented 4 months ago

The Apple II config program prompts the user to use keys (up, down, tab) that don't exist on an Apple II+ keyboard. The only way to select disks is via the web interface

JamieB226 commented 4 months ago

This is the default Apple II+ keyboard. This could be resolved by adding a second key binding to the config utility which exists on this keyboard.

Do you have any recommendations? Current key binding are listed in https://github.com/FujiNetWIFI/fujinet-config/blob/main/src/apple2/input.c

I don't have a strong preference. I could work with A (up) and Z (down). I'm not sure if you can move between servers and drives with the up/down keys. If so, those two may be sufficient. If not, maybe a chord of CTRL-D. I'm not sure if that introduces additional complexity.

Looking at the code, it appears LEFT and RIGHT are used in addition to UP and DOWN in some places. So you should be able to use those keys when selecting a host at least. Is this not working on the main hosts screen? On IIe and up, TAB is used to jump from HOSTS to DRIVES so that would need to be added as a different key for II/II+ (maybe T ?).

Left/right can work as up/down in some places, but in some places, it drills in/out of whatever is selected instead of doing up/down. I'm fine with T for TAB.

JamieB226 commented 4 months ago

As suggested in the Discord, you can use Ctrl-J, Ctrl-K, and Ctrl-I in place of up/down/tab. It's not obvious from the config interface

i've added the ability to use IJKM for navigation and T for TAB. A message noting this is displayed on the main hosts/devices screen for Apple II/II+ machines

Fixed in d64378d, thanks for reporting!
