= Using moreorless with a PS/2 keyboard = This document assumes that you use moreorless on a F256K which has a builtin keyboard, but moreorless also runs on the F256 Jr. which has to be used with a PS/2 keyboard. If your Foenix is used with a PS/2 keyboard the key bindings are subtely different. The first reason is obvious: A standard keyboard has no Foenix key. The solution to this problem is simple: Use the Windows key instead of the Foenix key. Another problem arises with all command keys that require you to press the shift key on the F256K but not on a PS/2 keyboard. These are * ''F2'', i.e. ''Shift+F1'' on F256K but simply ''F2'' on a PS/2 keyboard * ''F4'', i.e. ''Shift+F3'' on F256K but simply ''F4'' on a PS/2 keyboard * ''F8'', i.e. ''Shift+F7'' on F256K but simply ''F8'' on a PS/2 keyboard * ''Shift+clr home'' on F256K but simply ''Pos1'' on a PS/2 keyboard One solution to this problem would be to build a version of moreorless which detects if it is running on a Jr. and modifies its key bindings accordingly. This would only put F256K users with PS/2 keyboards at a disadvantage. The other solution would be to build a version with PS/2 specific key bindings. But this would make distribution somewhat confusing. As a maybe temporary workaround you should use the ''Shift'' key with the above key bindings when using a PS/2 keyboard. I.e. you should use ''Shift+F2'', ''Shift+F4'', ''Shift+F8'' and ''Shift+Pos1'' instead of simply pressing the corresponding keys.
