Keyboard Tweaks - beta release
Keyboard Tweaks is a small tool that allows you customize
keyboard behaviour and functionality. It currently lets you do
two things:
- Remapping. You can remap any key to any other key. So if you're
using a PC keyboard you can move the Control key to it's
correct position by remapping the Caps Lock key to Control.
Or you can remap Caps Lock on your Atari keyboard to the Milan
AltGr, this will allow you to use the AltGr keyboard table.
- Hotkeys. Define any keyboard combination and assign an action
to it. Actions are configurable, currently supported action
types are..
- Launch a program with optional arguments.
- Send a VA_START message to a specified AES application.
- Send a key combination to a specified running AES
application.
- Send a user defined message to a specified AES application.
In addition it allows you to access Taskbar's (or a compatible
program) start menu with a single keypress on a key of your
choice.
Keyboard Tweaks needs a recent version of the FreeMiNT kernel and an
AES. Tested under XaAES and N.AES, please let me know if you try this
under MyAES.
It also requires a properly installed AV-server (e.g. Teradesk or Thing!).

Adjust the included configuration file to your needs/system.
Disclaimer: I've been using this tool on my Falcon060 with MiNT/XaAES for
months without issues. However, that does not mean it works flawlessy on
your system. I strongly recommend having memory protection enabled
when testing/using this software!
