Re: hyphenation



Hello Flash,
I have something similar in my current setup. I am not quite sure why this is but anyway my ad hoc solution using AutoHotKey follows:

; vDosPlus keyboad
; ----------------
#IfWinActive, vDosPlus ahk_class vDos

; solution to a bug in keyboard driver ? :
SC029::Send, {Alt down}{Numpad9}{Numpad6}{Alt Up}		; ` (left quote)
+SC029::Send, {Alt down}{Numpad1}{Numpad2}{Numpad6}{Alt Up} ; ~ (ascii tilde = 126)
^!SC029::			; (XY conditional hyphen) Ctrl-Alt-tick/tilde tai 
AltGr-tick/tilde (= ascii 126 entered), 3-letter tilde not used!
{
clipboard := "~"
Send, #^v
Exit
}

Y'all,
Well, as Mr. Spock would say, "Fascinating." Somebody else out there uses tildes. It is commonly used as the logical-negation symbol (I sometimes work in symbolic logic, hence the connection to Mr. Spock). My difficulty is that on my kbd, key nr. 41, which is embossed with a tilde symbol, returns an error message when I assign any value to it in the kbd driver (see screamshot), so I have had to assign ASCII 126 to some other key. Grrrr.

Carl, have you any idea what error 7E means?
I have hyphenation turned off in XY3, as I use XY3 only for bulk input; all formatting I do in PageMaker (which has a XY3, but not a XY4, import filter).

Yours,
