Title: ascii code on amiga
Post by: Xanxi on June 28, 2010, 09:51:58 AM

Hi. As my A1200 keyboard has some non working keys, i need tu use ascii code (for example alt+099 instead of C), but unlike my pc, it does not work. Would you have any clue how to use ascii codes with my miggy? Thanks.

Try using http://aminet.net/util/cdity/AltKeyQ.lha from Aminet.

Cleaning the keyboard usually helps. Disassemble it completelty. There are guides on the net how to do it.

In the worst case you can still replace the key with another one which isn't used so frequently (e.g. from the numpad).
