The latest version of KBEXT is now available from UH-INFO at UHUPVM1
in BITNET. It is two versions of PD program + assembler source + doc.
To remind you what it does: KBEXT allows installation of 5 keyboard
tables instead of the usual 3. The 2 additional ones are used with
ALT and SHIFT ALT. Thus you can use all 256 Atari characters from the
keyboard in most programs (editors, graphic programs, dialogs etc.).
If you need ALT-xxx as a control key, try ALT-CTRL-xxx. This ignores
the tables, and works with most programs using ALT + some key for
control purposes. The version on LISTSERV at CANADA01 is now obsolete.

Enjoy,
Roland Waldi

P.S. Those who cannot access UHUPVM1: if you want the program, tell
me a distribution place in your net where to post it. I don't know
how to reach COMP.ATARI.xxx.ST or whatever newsgroups are called in other
nets. To post it, I need a USER, NODE and NET, not a complicated
path, which I don't know how to apply.
