Hiya,
I am working on a project that requires me to remap the keys of the
keyboard so that we can make a non-standard keyboard.
I would have thought this could be quite handy for a lot of users so
thought i'd jot down the programs i'd found (see below - not
comprehensive):
On a general point - if anyone knows of a good, dedicated, up to date
list of freeware/shareware AT/Access/Communication programs then can
they let me know!

+2 configs.
