haiku/docs/userguide/en/preferences/prefs-keymap.html
Joachim Seemer 077a475a14 * Added docs of applications:
CDPlayer and CodyCam (both work in progress), DeskCalc
* Started installing.html.
* Added a screenshot of Glyph+Subpixel rendering to Appearance prefs.
* Mentioned new setting "Monospaced Fonts Only" glyph hinting in Apperance prefs
* Mentioned sysinfo and listdev in bugreports.html as pointed out by scottmc.
* Some tweaks to the Haiku-doc.css.
* Put a link to http://www.haiku-os.org/community into welcome.html,
  removed the "(online)".
* Reorganized the file hierarchy to accommodate future translations. See thread:
  http://www.freelists.org/post/haiku-doc/Organizing-translations-of-User-GuideWelcome-Package.
* Added a userguide/languages.html that will serve as entry for the different
  translations.
  Since the welcome page is more or less only one page, we'll find another
  solution for that when the first translations are available.

<p>The Keymap window shows a representation of your keyboard. When you press a key, the corresponding key is inverted and the assigned symbol is entered into the text field at the top. From there you can copy and paste it into any document.<br />
Thus, the Keymap preferences are not only for configuring your local keymap, but are also useful when looking for a special symbol used in other languages. For example, you can switch the keymap to "French", find the "&ccedil;" and copy it into your mail to Fran&ccedil;ois. (Though you'll find the "cedil" also in other keymaps...")</p>
<p>Pressing modifier keys like <tt>SHIFT</tt> or <tt>AltGr</tt>, you'll find more special characters.</p>
<p>Then there are the keys that are marked with a yellow outline. These are keys that can change the key you press after that. If you press a yellow key twice, those changeable keys are marked with a red outline. Examples are &eacute;, &ntilde;, &oacute; or &euml;.</p>
<p>You set the used font, which may or may not contain all symbols for a specific keymap from the <i>Font</i> menu.</p>
