Enhancement - Remapping Keyboard To Support D |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Solutions: Enhancement: A user requested that WordPerfect 5.1 support the DVORAK keyboard. Answer: Although the DVORAK keyboard is not supported directly, users can create this keyboard using the Keyboard Layout feature. For the DVORAK keyboard, users could remap the keys so that all vowels are located on "home base." The steps below list how to map E to the current position of S: 1. Create a keyboard layout (Shift-F1, K, C). 2. Edit the keyboard layout (E). 3. Press Create ©. 4. Type S. 5. Enter a description for the key (optional). 5. Delete the S from the Macro Editor window and type an E. 6. Exit the Macro Editor (F7). Users can then follow the same procedure for each key that needs to be redefined. The information for all keys is stored in one keyboard layout. When users are finish entering the information, they should exit to the Setup: Keyboard Layout screen and select the keyboard they have created. Once selected, the keyboard layout will remain active. Users will not need to reselect it each time they enter WordPerfect. Users may unselect the keyboard when they are in WordPerfect by choosing another keyboard layout or by selecting Original from the menu. The same task can be accomplished with the Keyboard Map feature. Both features are found under the same menu (Shift-F1, K). When using the Keyboard Map feature, the user should enter M to see the map for the keyboard. They can then change each letter by moving to the letter and pressing Macro (M). |
