Remap keys in WinUAE

I want to start to play Antepenut but I am using a PC keyboard in WinUAE.

I created a configuration (A500 and play from floppy) and I load the italian keyboard of AmigaOS 1.3 in the startup-sequence.

The game uses for move the characters these keys,

[ North
/ South
; West
' East

so I want to remap the cursor keys for better play as these keys are placed differently in my keyboard and use them is not confortable.

So I need to remap keys in WinUAE or to create a keyboard setting file in Workbench? As I remember there are some programs to remap setting files.

I'ld prefere remap keys in WinUAE. There is any guide about?

If the game uses a joystick:

Goto 'GamePorts' --> Port 2 --> Custom
Then remap keys to your liking. These keys will mimic the joystick. Note the keys won't be available typing.

Otherwise Input might be a start but I can't get the remap button to function.

Add needed Amiga key to remap window with "Add event" button, then move joystick/pad to map it. Repeat for each key.

I used KeymapEd 1.2 to remap the cursor keys on the US keymap to the keys "=","[","]"and"'" for my tablet as you can see on my screenshot. The normal characters on these keys are still accessible by holding <Alt> down. I've also mapped the German Umlaut characters to other keys, but that doesn't matter here.
