dvorak keyboard setting
#1
i use dvorak keyboard setting and i need to work on other people's machines. is there a way to have qm switch my keyboard settings since most don't like me going in and changing the keyboard layout via the control panel (besides that takes too long)?

would the best way be to set up a trigger for each key? and if so would that affect my "key" function lines making them print scrambled?

thanks

I know these methods:

1. LoadKeyboardLayot and ActivateKeyboardLayot. But activates only for QM, not for all apps.

2. Use triggers for each key. This does not affect key commands, but is quite dirty.

3. Use low level keyboard hooks. Also quite much work, but should be better than 2. But does not work on Win98/Me.

4. Use registry to map keys. Quite much work, does not work on Win98, requires restarting computer.

5. Use Control Panel. Can be automated using macro.

All methods are not ideal. This is all I can help you.
