      From: dirk.froehling@freenet.de              Bonjour Antoine,              thanks for your hints!              I think I didn't make that clear, it is not an emulated IIGS, it's the       real thing.              So the translation table should be in sys.resources? I fired up all my       resource editors: Genesys, Foundation, ResEdit.IIgs, rEdit ;)       I could not see anything that resembled a translation table. Then I dug       into my old IIGS programming manuals for Apple IIGS Toolbox Reference       Volume 3 and found that the type of resource should be $8021       rKTransTable. Unfortunately, there was none such resource.              Also, I got it wrong: When looking at my emulated machine which runs       6.0.1 (original images from my real IIGS), the keyboard mapping was also       wrong. So somehow it got lost before the update to 6.0.4. I looked at       the Install disk of GS/OS 6.0.2, but there is no translation table as well.              But I am absolutely sure I was able to write perfectly normal with my       German keyboard back then!              Does anybody have a sys.resources file with a translation table for me       to start?              Regards       Dirk              Am 04.03.23 um 20:58 schrieb Antoine Vignau:       > Hallo Dirk,       >       > There are a couple of possibilities:       > - your emulator's host OS may swallow keys preventing the emulator to output       the correct key combination to generate a character,       > - In the sys.resources files, there is a resource to map keypresses to a       font character. Perhaps you had one on your 6.0.1 resource, but there's none       for 6.0.4       >       > I did one for French characters, it is either on my real machines or on the       emulated ones, I dunno :-)       >       > MfG,       > Antoine              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
