Keymap Source Format
The source file
DEFAULT.KEY
is supplied with the keymap compiler. This is the commented
source for the default keymap
Preload
or
0409
(keymap label is dependent on system software
revision). The comments in this file should make the majority of this document redundant. There
is a copy of this file at the end of this section, in “Sample Input File
”
. This section should be read
while referring to this sample source, for simplicity.
Note: You must change the name of the default key map from 0409 to some other number (i.e.
0509). To do this, change line #13 “MAPNAME=0409” to “MAPNAME=0509”. If the
description is also present,” MAPDESC=Preload”, the description must also be
changed to a unique value, i.e. “MAPDESC=CustomKeys”
It is an important limitation that the keymap must have a 4, 5, or 6 digit numeric name
MAPNAME); this is a limit of the Microsoft Windows CE layout manager. The default value for
MAPNAME is 0409.
If present in the DEFAULT.KEY file, the keymap can also have an alphanumeric description
(MAPDESC). This value can be a 64 character alphanumeric name. When present, this value
may be displayed instead of MAPNAME when selecting the keymap in the control panel. The
default value for MAPDESC is {reload.
The format of this file is familiar to anyone who has used .INI files under Windows. There is a
section header in square brackets, followed by various values in the form
value=data
.
Lines beginning with a semicolon (;) or empty lines are ignored as comments. Spaces or tabs
before or after the information are stripped off and ignored. Case is ignored in section names,
value names, and value data.
Note: VX6 and Remote Desktop Connection: before connecting to a host using Remote Desktop
Connection, go to Start | Settings | Control Panel | Keyboard and select Preload or 0409
(depending on system software revision) from the keymap popup. Click OK.
COLxROWx Format
Note: There is no relationship between the physical layout COL/ROW of the keyboard / keypad
and the COL/ROW listing in the key map file. The key map file represents the electrical
layout not the physical layout.
All keys are specified in COLxROWx format. In this format, the first x is the 1 or 2 digit column
in the keymap, and the second x is the 1 or 2 digit row in the keymap. All rows and columns are
enumerated starting with zero (0).
In the
MAP
section, the
COLxROWx
is the value name, and the values must be less than the
MAPROWS
and
MAPCOLS
specified in the
GENERAL
section.
In the
SPECIAL
section, the
COLxROWx
is the value data, and the values given can be outside
the normal key map limits.
