- Hello!
-
-
- I am trying to redefine the Umlaut keys on my German keyboard for EPM
- 5.51.
-
- Basically, I am trying to compile this with etpm:
-
- def '*' =
- keyin 'something_else'
-
- This works fine when * is a normal alphabetic character (e.g., 'a' -
- 'z'). But it fails when I use a German Umlaut character: etpm
- complains about "invalid key name".
-
- The EPM Technical Reference states that I can redefine "any printable
- character whose ASCII value is between 0 and 255". So how do I
- redefine the a-Umlaut key (ASCII 132), which is definitely printable
- and between 0 and 255?
-
-
- Thanks for any help
- Harald
