I am looking for a program that will remap my keys. I would to go from QWERTY to DVORAK. If you know an ftpsite that has this program, please e-mail me. Thank you in advance, dewaler@mist.cs.orst.edu

One of the better shareware keyboard macro programs, Newkey (see your local FTP site or BBS, is up to at least version 5.0) includes a data file which tells the macro program how to map the standard QWERTY keyboard to Dvorak. If you're serious about going Dvorak, you may be better off looking into keyboard manufacturers which make them with the proper layout of keycaps and punctuation, etc. Singing off, UNIX:/etc/ping instantiated (Ping Huang).

Someone else posted an ftp source; I once used one put out by the real, live Dvorak folks...but it only worked with some programs. Others insisted on grabbing the keyboard output directly, and bypassing the remapper. It's too bad the keyboard can't be directly reprogrammed to do this...well, I don't _think_ you can do that.... Anyway, I got mad, and got myself a new keyboard with fairly flat keytops, and rewired the whole damn thing to speak DSK. It's been working just fine for about a year and a half now. d
