Please add keyboard translation

Most of PC compatibles don't come with Amiga keyboard layout. So I think UAE should translate keyboard input so it would input proper characters (e.g. when I press Shift+2 to input @ character, I want input @ character, not a quote!).

Set correct Amiga side keymap. (setmap <layout> or setkeyboard <layout>)

Whch one and where to put that command?

Sorry, but I am using this AMOS installer: http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=60144 which comes with ancient AROS roms (Workbook 1.0) and crash and burns on newer ones (no idea how to properly upgrade it either since amiga emulation=black magic for me - I can setup emulation for literally any other system, not so much for the amiga).

AMOS (at least the real installer) will ask you for your preferred keymap upon installation.

Heya darkhog,

Never used AROS but had a look at the package linked to in the other thread: AMOS for Windows (zip archive)

Inside the "AMOS for Windows\AMOS\S" directory the "Startup-Sequence" looks like this:

Code:

So the keyboard is already set as "pc105_gb"...

I guess you are not using an English GB keyboard but a English US one instead?
