The last time I checked, one of the physical keyboards for which no KCAP resource seems to exist is the "Latin America" one - used in most Portuguese- Spanish-speaking countries. It has 102 keys - the extra key (relative to the "generic" ANSI 101-key layout) is to the right of the left shift key. I've been trying to find a utility to build such a resource, to no avail - the format is documented but it's more work to build from scratch than I can afford at this time. At any rate, there doesn't seem to be a user-supported way of including a new KCAP into Mac OS X, and from a cursory look it seems that there's no longer a single place in the system for them - Keyboard Viewer, for one, seems to have its own copies inside the app package. I've filed rdar://9295080/ asking for a 102-key layout to be included into the system, but so far there seems to be little interest or similar requests from Latin American users. Anyway, I'll be grateful for any further information about these issues. I suppose replies to this will be off-topic for Cocoa-dev, so please email me privately. -- Rainer Brockerhoff <rai...@brockerhoff.net> Belo Horizonte, Brazil "In the affairs of others even fools are wise In their own business even sages err."
