Re: Can keyboard assignment use Windows key?

It's dead easy to install and use. And I'd be glad to give
you help, including portions of my script.

Yes, I'll try it as well as messing
with the XyWrite keyboard file. (I took a look at the website and
it certainly looks useful.)

Okay, understood. I again recommend
Autohotkey, especially for using a

laptop keyboard. In it, I have a little code to make the laptop
keyboard

usable in terms of (mine) having no page up/down and dedicated
home/end

keys. When I'm using the Mac laptop's keyboard, I hit ctrl-shift-m
and

it's all configured. When I have my external keyboard, I hit it
again

and it toggles back to normal.

I agree that that's the solution
for home, but the locations of the

serious work I have been trying to do have been airplanes, hotel

rooms, airports, ...

Get yourself an external keyboard. And an external monitor. The
laptop

is only for the innards. (I assume you're doing the serious work at
home

or in your office, not while on the road.)
