Hi there!
I have a major problem with Spectre:
I made a customized keyboard map for finnish keyboard, named
it DEFAULT.KEY and saved it to the same level with SPECTRE.PRG.
There is a copy of it at the ETC-folder also. All this is located
to my D: harddisk in a folder named SPECTRE. I launch my Spectre
from a SPECTRE.PRG icon located at the NeoDesk desktop.
First time I started with this keyboard map, the keyboard in
Mac-mode was all mixed up. The "Keyboard" -accessory does not
show the numeric keypad, it shows the old Mac Plus keyboard
with no keypad instead. The bottom line having Z, X, C,... etc.
has shifted to the left by one key, so if I press N, I got B etc.
And there is no space bar and almost all special keys, including
the space bar, act like RETURN.
The keyboard was ok (until I made this .KEY),
except </> and '/* keys were switched (the " ' " and " * " came
from lower left corner and " < " came from left to the Backspace),
so I tried to fix this, because I use these keys a lot.
After I made this .KEY file, it went mixed.
I also removed all files affecting to the keyboard layout from
my Mac system folder, and zeroed the settings for keyboard.
I tried to restore the situation before this, but no success.
No matter what I do, the keyboard stays mixed up.
So, please give me instructions how this .KEY file becomes activated,
what are the required operations/files/paths in ST-mode, and what
are the required settings/files in Mac mode.
The keyboard my ST has is the Swedish keyboard (it is the official
one in Finland too).
