The keyboard will get cleaned up real good and reassembled once I get it working like I want to.
My keyboard has a norwegian layout, and this is just fine when I'm using the standard config file for Soarer's Converter, because the computer reassigns the keys just like if I hooked up a regular keyboard. Luckily, most of the symbols are right where I expect them.
However, if you look closer at the left shift, you can see it's a rather small key, leaving room for another key between it and the Z key. I have found it to be sending out the letter 8 when I type. After finding this in the config file, I tried changing its function to the letter B, and this change was successful. Now I have changed it to AUX1. I was hoping I could make AUX1 become the signs < and > when shifted. So far I have not figured out how this would be programmed. Also, when I open the config.sc files in notepad, everything looks like chaos - are there better ways to edit these files?
Also, my Enter key is not a "bigass" one like I've seen on photos of other keyboards like this. There is another key here, with apostrophy / single quote ' and when shifted, an asterisk *. This function is handled by the BACKSLASH assignment, I guess the national conversion takes care of the symbols I want. However, the key on the WW2 is not doing anything at all. It outputs 5E in the HID_listen program. If only I could tell which one of the UNASSIGNED spots in the config file I need to change to BACKSLASH... I guess that would make it complete.
Really looking forward to bring the buckling springs keyboard to my main computer. I really appreciate all the knowledge being shared here
