- Key Strings Version 1.2
-
- Key Strings is a group of DA's and programs that allow the user
- of a MacIntosh running HFS to have the following additions to there
- system.
-
- 1. You may easily change the keyboard layout. This is done with
- the desk accessory 'Key Edit'. Various keyboard configurations
- may be saved into files if you have need of more than one keyboard
- layout.
-
- 2. You may assign a sequence of characters to any key on the
- keyboard (max = 255 in Ver 1.2). These are called macro keys;
- however, they do not have any 'real' macro capabilities in this
- release. This is done with the desk accessory 'Key Strings'.
- These may be saved into files for later reloading.
-
- 3. You may assign FKEY's to any key sequence on the Mac keyboard
- (max = 255 FKEY's in Ver 1.2). This also is done with the desk
- accessory 'Key Edit'.
-
- 4. You may save your personal keyboard / keystring combination so
- that on each restarting of you MacIntosh, it will be immediately
- available for your use. Any, by simply removing a file from your
- System Folder, you may go back to your unmodified System and use
- your computer without Key Strings being installed.
-
-
- The current version of Key Strings is 1.2. The name of the file it is
- normaly uploaded as is 'KStr12.pit' (where the '12' is the version number).
- The file is uploaded in macbinary format and requires Packit 3 to unpack
- into its various parts.
-
-
- Note: Key Strings installs as a file of type 'INIT' in your System Folder.
- You do not have to play around with or modify your System file unless
- you wish to use the several FKEY's supplied with Key Strings. Those
- FKEY's are:
- Cycle -- which allows you to change windows from the keyboard
- Stack -- which allows you to stack windows from the keybaord
- Zoom -- which allows you to zoom (some windows) from the keybaord
