Title: Help with Soarer's Converter w/ Model F AT
Post by: Chromako on Thu, 05 February 2015, 05:55:08: Thanks in advance for helping!

I'm using a modified (ANSI mod with added modifiers on each side of the spacebar) model F AT with my mac, and I'm running into a bit of trouble with Soarer's converter (I'm not an experienced programmer and the documentation has me stumped). Right now, I have this loaded:

Code: [Select]
ifset set2 remapblock FAKE_02 LALT # extra pad lhs of space FAKE_04 RALT # extra pad rhs of space FAKE_06 BACKSLASH # extra pad top of enter CAPS_LOCK RCTRL LALT CAPS_LOCK PAD_PLUS PAD_ENTER PAD_MINUS PAD_PLUS PAD_ASTERIX PAD_MINUS EXTRA_SYSRQ PAD_ASTERIX SCROLL_LOCK PAD_SLASH endblock

The problem is that I can't use the navigation keys embedded in the numpad as Mac OS doesn't' support toggling the num lock key (grr). I'd like to emulate this function in Soarer's converter. What I'd like is to press, say, LShift+LAlt+NumLock and have it load a new configuration that gives me the navigation keys in the numpad. Ideally, pressing that combo again would load the original remap. Here's the new remap:
Code: [Select]
ifset set2 remapblock FAKE_02 LALT # extra pad lhs of space FAKE_04 RALT # extra pad rhs of space FAKE_06 BACKSLASH # extra pad top of enter CAPS_LOCK RCTRL LALT CAPS_LOCK PAD_PLUS PAD_ENTER #The following essentially disable num lock so we can have a navigation cluster on Macintosh computers PAD_0 INSERT PAD_1 END PAD_2 DOWN PAD_3 PAGE_DOWN PAD_4 LEFT PAD_5 UNASSIGNED PAD_6 RIGHT PAD_7 HOME PAD_8 UP PAD_9 PAGE_UP PAD_SLASH UNASSIGNED PAD_PERIOD DELETE PAD_MINUS UNASSIGNED PAD_ASTERIX UNASSIGNED SCROLL_LOCK UNASSIGNED EXTRA_SYSRQ UNASSIGNED endblockHow would I go about doing this? Again, thanks so much for helping!
