Odo

version v0.2.4.14

Some people with a qwerty keyboard, still prefer to use the 'azerty' or other keyboard layout. Normally it works fine, except for 'key 102'. A default qwerty keyboard only has 101 keys, and this 'key 102' holds characters "<", ">" and "\" in Belgian keyboard layout. Pretty important characters for HTML and Windows-prompt work. Since odo is counting characters, I built it in that, when using the left shift as if the 120th key were there, the appropriate character is sent to the keyboard buffer. No keypresses are simulated when the left-shift key is actually used in a key-combination, so the left-shift is still available for normal use also. To activate this feature, open the odo.ini file stored where odo.exe is, and add this to the end:

[Fix]
Fix102=1
Apparently the previous version did send the simulated keypressed when the left-shift was used with 'non-counted' characters, like question mark, period etc. and function keys. This is now fixed.
