I dont know the format for .kbd's but at www.windows95.com there is a program called Jkbd95.zip that lets you create .kbd files. From the README.txt: --------------------------------------------------------------------- Janko's Keyboard Generator for Windows 95 v4.1 10/3/96 Introduction This program generates KBD files for Windows 95. Windows 95 allows users to select the keyboard layout from thE list, but do not allow them to personally configure the layout to suit their needs. That does not seem to bother users who write only in English. But, many languages use more than 26 english letters, or even do not use Latin alphabet at all. For these languages, there are tipically many character mappings. If Windows 95 does not provide the mapping you want, here's your chance to make it by yourself. --------------------------------------------------------------------- maybe that's what you need. -Monroe --Sig------------------------------------------ http://ior.medio.mh.se/~sand/elegant.html -----------------------------------------------
