blackwidow on macbook

[leotnnz]

hi, guys,

just received bw this afternoon. opened the box and plugged in my desktop. works fine. tried it on my macbook. then i noticed bw does not support mac os x from razer web. any one knows any software which could map mac's command key to the win key on the kb?

btw, my das blue is sold. but i feel something different between das blue and razer blue. just due to keycaps or anything else? and the build quality of bw is definitely worse than das and filco. but $56 is reasonable price for a mech kb with annoying blue flashing light.

OS X should automagically interpret the windows key as command and the alt key as option.

Is this not the case?

fyi USB Overdrive makes practically everything work on mac. It's a great app and works great with my g9x mouse as well! http://www.usboverdrive.com/ google: usb overdrive in case of bad link.

I remapped and exchanged the Alt keys and Windows keys, and their key caps as well. No need more time to accustom myself to the new layout.

another interesting gadget fyi, under input method menu, there is a "show Keyboard Viewer" which can be used to test the mapping and function of keyboard. Hope guys find it is helpful, cheers!

Modifier keys can be jiggled in System Prefs.  More extensive remapping can be done with Ukelele and Spark, for shortcuts.
