is it possible to redefine the pre defined keys on a sam coupe?

[777]

or use key codes? ive looked into this but its incredibly confusing. using key and def keycode... i want to say reassign the ctrl 'p' key and shift to output palette instead of print or 'p' and shift to output palette for example. how do i do this?

I think some keys cannot be redefined. Starting simple:

Code: Select all

def keycode 195:palette:

Will make f3 produce palette.

Code: Select all

key 66,195
def keycode 195:palette:

Will make p produce palette, 66 is the code for the p key (see keyboard map in appendix). Add the modifier 70 for shift:

Code: Select all

key 66+70,195
def keycode 195:palette:

And shift p will produce palette, in a similar vein add the modifier 210 for cntrl:

Code: Select all

key 66+210,195
def keycode 195:palette:

Should result in cntrl p producing palette, but it does not.

I have to admit that back in the day reassigning a function key or two was more than sufficient for my needs.

thank you. it does work btw by using the other ctrl key in sim coupe

A real SAM has separate CNTRL and SYMBOL keys, which I'm guessing get mapped onto alternate CTRL keys on a PC keyboard in SimCoupe.
