Solved a maddening PC puzzle
This helped me discover that when PC system preferences remap a modifier key to Option, it actually remaps to Right-Option, not Left-Option. This resolved some frustrating behavior when using Parallels, as for some reason Alt Tab was misbehaving... it's because Microsoft had me unwittingly sending Right-Alt Tab, which changes the behavior of the task switcher. I just had to add a registry hack to remap Right-Alt as Left-Alt to make Windows work properly again. I'd still be pulling my hair out and trying to figure out what was wrong if not for this free tool. Thank you so much!
Must Have!
This app has saved me so much time across several projects. Would have no problem paying $5+ for this. Great job!
Perfect app to find key codes
Shows you the key codes associated with different keys. Very useful when using Microsoft Script to simulate key presses.
excellent
does just what it says. Thanks!
dropped chars
Seems like the OS or keyboard driver is catching and killing many of the keys on my Sun keyboard! I was hoping to get use of the many weird keys it has. Nope. I’ll keep working on it.
