Hi everyone,

I tried to finalize a keymap for a bépo keyboard (french version of dvorak) but I don't understand how to make dead key (example : put the ^ on a o to make ô after typing two keys).

I looked at others keymaps and I still don't understand.

Can someone give me a hint or an example ? I share source of my keymap if it can help.

Thank you ;)

I don't know if this helps, but take a look at USB-Prefs of keyboard (HID-Class). There are some possibilties to manipulate.

@Amigaharry2 : Thank you. It can do the trick but I want to do a full keymap, without settings in Poseidon ;)

@Georg : Very helpful. I didn't find this page before and I don't know why. I'll read it very carefuly and I hope I'll succeed. Thank you !

If you still have not succeeded , I have a few suggestions:
- download the keymaps sourcecode from the MorphOS site (from https://morphos-team.net/sources you can select for instance the keymaps from MorphOS 3.15)
- have a look at pc105_d.c (the german keymap, which is one of the most complete for obvious reasons) and compare with one without dead keys defined, like pc105_gb.c or pc105_sp.c for reference
- you will notice that in order to implement dead keys you have to indicate the "target" keys (usually a, e, i, o, u and y) and the proper dead keys used in the combination to generate the accent (for instance f, g, h, j, k) as D|V in the lokeymaptypes[]. You will see that also the spacebar is defined as D|A in the hikeymaptypes[]. Then you have to create the const UBYTE keyXX_descr[] for those keys (which I see you did) and substitute BYTES(whatever) in lokeymap[] with DEAD(keyXX_descr).
I hope this can help you.

Kind regards,
Andrea
