SwapKeys 98 is a Windows Keyboard Remapper and Hot Key utility which utilizes the standard Windows ANSI character set and the Windows Virtual Key Code character set. The remapping and hot keys work in virtually all Windows applications. Now you can have quick and easy access to the complete ANSI character set in all your programs using the same mechanism. No more need for using the ALT and Keypad sequences.
Remapping can be made to the primary keyboard characters. Hot Keys can be assigned using many of the keyboard keys along with the "CTRL", "ALT" and "WIN" keys or combinations thereof. For example, ALT+A can be mapped to ä and ALT+WIN+A can be mapped to Ä. Map WIN+C to ©.
All keyboard character remappings and hot keys are stored in a file. Multiple files can be created so that different keyboard mappings can be maintained. The program is network aware so that one keyboard mapping file can be shared across a network. File locking is performed to prevent two or more users from overwriting changes made by another. Command line options are available (such as a browse only mode, loading a specific mapping file, etc) that can help network administrators create uniformity among users.
To make it work, simply run the program and all mappings and hot keys will be active.
