Keyboard Mapping
-
I am using a friend's computer (MS XP Home) and am trying to do some remote unix programming through it. The following is in regards to the left shift key only. The right shift key works fine. However I dont use the right shift key so that is of little use to me. The long and short of it is the 'Shift+\' should result in '|' which is necessary for creating "or" statements in php and C++. When I hit "Shift+\" I get the pipe symbol "|" plus a carriage return. How do I reset the keyboard programming so that shift+\ yields a pipe "|." I do not have sticky keys, filter keys or toggle keys turned on. Thanks -- modified at 21:22 Monday 21st November, 2005

This would be dependant on the terminal app your using, not any keyboard mapping in Windows. RageInTheMachine9532 "...a pungent, ghastly, stinky piece of cheese!" -- The Roaming Gnome

I have used notpad, wordpad, putty, and SSH terminal login. They all give the same result. Additionally, the left shift key + \ will close a dialog window (much like esc or the SC_CLOSE event),...however the right shift key + \ does not add the carriage return nor does it act as an SC_CLOSE event.

Then you've got something else going on in your system. Perhaps some other application hooking the keyboard? A virus or trojan? A trainer for some game? Start the machine in Safe Mode and see if it does the same thing. There is no keyboard "mapping" to change. RageInTheMachine9532 "...a pungent, ghastly, stinky piece of cheese!" -- The Roaming Gnome
