Assistance with keymaps? Message-ID: <6513@alice.uUCp> Date: Sat, 3-Jan-87 23:09:42 EST Article-I.D.: alice.6513 Posted: Sat Jan 3 23:09:42 1987 Date-Received: Sun, 4-Jan-87 03:44:57 EST Organization: Utility Muffin Research Kitchen Lines: 44 Keywords: keymaps Help, please! I have worked for hours trying to make sense out of some Macro Assembler keymap source code. For instance, I am trying to recreate the source to the usa keymap from Robert Burns' usa2 (dvorak) keymap posted a while back. The DVLCapsable field doesn't seem to be working right; when I redefine bits to be either "capsable" or not-"capsable," it usually doesn't work! The ROM Kernel Manual isn't too clear here, and really hasn't helped me. I know how the keymap should work; it just doesn't! I am running 1.2 Gamma 1 on a 512K Amiga, using the Macro Assembler, SetMap (which seems to work all right) and SetFont (which seems to work well too). I have also put some new characters in the topaz font between 0x90 and 0x9b (inclusive). They show up in FontEditor, but using SetFont with this program: main() { int c; for(c = 0x90; c <= 0x9b; c++) printf("%c\n", c); } ... displays nothing but a bunch of linefeeds. I also cannot map the ALT-combinations of the characters I need to these new characters (or at least they won't display correctly). PLEASE! If anyone (especially those of you at C-Amiga) could send me the source code (in Macro Assembler?) to the usa or usa0 keymap, and/or could provide me with help about sticking new characters in keymaps and fonts, I would be f o r e v e r grateful.
