All,

Can someone please remind me how to change the keyboard 'language' within MMBasic?

I am sure I have done it before (to swap the @ and " characters around).

Just can't see any reference in the User Manual . . .

Thanks to any of you that can assist (it is 02:40 here in UK - perhaps I should go to bed!)

WW

The Maximite has CONFIG KEYBOARD US | UK | FR | GR | BE | IT | ES

I don't think the Micromite has the option to change keyboards.

Thanks Jim & Pierre - you are both correct.
I have a 'clear' head now that I got some sleep. I just happened to have a MaxiMite next to me when I posted the question about the MicroMite; and now I remember changing the language a few months back on the MaxiMite.

I am currently playing with a MicroMite Companion (from oldbitcollector). These look & feel like really nice units and it is for this that I ideally needed to change the keyboard layout. Oh well.

Can anyone provide a link to a PS2 small(ish) keyboard that knowingly works with the MaxiMite (or VT100)?
By the way, it needs to be a keyboard that is in stock (and ideally more than a quantity of 10).
And my preference is that the '@' symbol on the shift-2 key (but this is not critical)

Thanks
WW

@plasma.
Ok- excellent price, available in other colours (but can only order white!), bit big but can live with that for testing purposes.

Question. What does the 'down-arrow' key do (third key up from bottom left corner (above shift key))?
