kbd or console like tools for Windows?
by immilev - Sep 17th 2003 07:30:23
Not closely related to this project, so please be forgiving of this post.
I've been searching to no avail for tools like kbd or con-tools for Win2K.
Would you guys know if any such exist? I have been happy with my LFS at
home, but I am trying to make my life easier using Win2K (dugh) at work.
Any pointers would be appreciated. Thanks!

Problems with kbd (and possibly with the kernel in general)
by whyrph - Jul 11th 2003 19:15:53
I'm hoping the kbd developer is paying attention here, because I haven't
found a good way to get to him/her/them. Here's my problem:
I want to set up my virtual consoles in a grid pattern, rather than in a
row. A very easy way to do this would be to just have a key set to
Incr_Console 6 times (that would make an effective grid 6 columns wide).
I've been trying to do this with loadkeys,but it won't let me set it. If
I put "keycode 72 = Incr_Console Incr_Console" etc, it only does
one Incr_Console, and only shows up as one on dumpkeys. If this could be
fixed, I would greatly appreciate it.
Also . .while you can have a plain keycode run multiple actions, it seems
that a keycode with a modifier can't. I'm guessing there's a kernel-side
reason for this, and if so, is there a workaround?

Replacement for kbd
by Yann Dirson - Aug 30th 1999 18:46:05
You may wish to check out The Linux
Console Tools and the Linux
Console Data as a replacement for kbd, for better support of the
available console-driver features.

Both console-tools and kbd have their advantages and disadvantages...
C-tools is a split off of kbd and kbd is actually been more worked on. And
kbd installs without any flaws on modern systems - C-tools made me some
problems though...

Well, this is no loger true. kbd is by far more uptodate than
console-tools. I couldn't even contact console-tools maintainer
to send him some data for macedonian users.

Not completely true. A number of console-tools feature are still not
supported by kbd (eg. sfm fallbacks). I have not sync'd console-tools
with kbd features for a long long time, so kbd has got new features of its
own. Neither is a subset of the other any more at this time.

Sorry, there are a whole lot of submissions in my mailboxes. I forward
to the Debian BTS when I
find old ones, and some day there may be a new console-data release.
