Short: Plug a PC keyboard to your Amiga (1.3)
Uploader: dacosta@lag.grenet.fr (Charles Da Costa)
Author: Charles Da Costa
Type: hard/hack
Version: 2.0
Many people want to use a PeeCee keyboard instead of the Amiga keyboard so,
this archive is an update to the hack made by Eric Rudoph in 1991
(aminet hard/hack/ibmKeyboard.lha).
I build this hack and it work great with my Amiga 1200, so I decide to put my
work in an archive in aminet because the original one is "fairly involved".
I give you:
a shematic instead of a long text,
a PCB to build the interface (not very beautiful because there are
many wire bridges needed but it work),
a binary (without the XT support) to put in an 2732 eprom,
support for 105 AT new keyboard.
History:
========
1.0 (2/2/96) fisrt public release.
1.1 (11/2/96)
a reset problem fixed:
when the control (capslock or F12), left amiga (ctrl) and an another
key are pressed together a reset occur. (OOOPS !).
I have add some ugly pictures (screen snapshots) just to give a preview...
2.0 (06/6/96) Major update
Windows 95's new keyboard support (may be de/activated by a switch).
New mapping of the xtra Pc keys: F11, F12, inser, PageUp, PageDown, home,
end, printScreen, scrollLock.
Added a switch to toggle between my key mapping or sending rawkey codes
for these xtra keys.
Can perform a reset automatically after a delay.
(A way to solve slow hard drive spin up problem !!!!!!!!)
