OK, half way through writing it down, I've realised what is happening - in set 2, the keyboard seems to be emulating another keyboard layout, (but apparently not a US or UK one). For example, ; and : are on different keys. Shift ; gives + and shift : gives * The keycodes generated, though, show up as follows: ; - 39 shift ; (+) - 13 : - 42, 39, release 39, release 42 shift : (*) - 9 So, if I press : on it's own, the keyboard actually simulates pressing shift and ; Likewise, if I press right-shift and @ to get ` the keyboard actually sends a release 54 as soon as I press @, even though I'm still holding down right-shift, then sends 41, release 41, then 54 I suspect set 3 will producde a more direct mapping of a single keycode for each key, but we shall see... I'll send along the complete list when I've finished it, (it's taking ages :-) ).
