6.3.5.2 Keys With Special Functions
Alongside the standard keys, such as letters, numbers and function keys, the
following keys are available:
6.3.6 Configuring The Software Keyboard
The design of the software keyboard is defined in the configuration file
Keyboard.cfg. The keys are defined and many other settings are made in the various
sections and keys of this file.
While the CFG file largely conforms to the INI standard, separate parsing is carried
out specifically for the definitions of the individual keys.
6.3.6.1 Structure Of The Keyboard.cfg File
In the Keyboard.cfg file, several software keyboards can be defined, which can be
shown on the screen as required.
Every software keyboard requires:
1. A [Keyboard_xxx] section with general settings for size and position
of the software keyboard.
2. A [Keys] section that follows, in which the individual keys of this soft-
ware keyboard are defined.
