When using a non-US (or UK) keyboard, certain keys can't be typed.
< ul >
< li > AltGr (or right Alt) needs to be used to type certain keys, eg:
< ul >
< li > '@' is AltGr+2 (for a Canadian-French keyboard).< / li >
< li > '[' is AltGr+<2B> (for an Italian keyboard).< / li >

< li > Some games or productivity software have an action based on the Open Apple (Alt) or Solid Apple (AltGr) keys, eg:
< ul >
< li > Lode Runner uses CTRL+@ to increase the lives.< / li >
< li > AppleLogo // and AppleWorks 5.1 have problems when using an Italian keyboard.< / li >
< / ul >
< / li >
2019-11-10 16:56:30 +00:00
< li > This dual function for AltGr (to both type a key and emulate Solid Apple) can cause problems such that the key (eg. '@') can never be typed.< / li >
< li > The workaround is to use the `-no-hook-alt` command line switch and configure Joystick 1 = "Keyboard (numpad)"; and then use the '0' and '.' keys for Open/Solid Apple.< / li >
