Switching Capslock, Control, and Alt Keys

"It's in the fingers, not in the mind."

Note 1: The best program I've found so far to remap keys is the clever and easy to use SharpKeys. In fact, if you have SharpKeys, you really don't need to read any of the stuff below.

Note 2:  PC Magazine now has a utility to remap your keyboard that is reputed to work under WinXP:  TradeKeys 2.  Download from www.pcmag.com/utilities. Bruno Fernandes says it works, but only for standard keys. And, he says there is a .NET program called "Scancode Mapper" but that under XP it was mapping keys incorrectly.

Note 3: before you email me asking "how do I remap X to Y?"  There is a Microsoft Word file on the Microsoft website that lists the scancodes for all of the keys. Bruno Fernandes also notes there is a Microsoft PDF file that is even easier to use and has information on more key scancodes, even allowing you, with some work, to remap nonstandard, officially unsupported keys.  Please review these files FIRST.  With these files and the article below, you should be able to implement your particular key-swap needs.  Sorry that I can't provide registry files to everyone for every possible key-swap -- you'll need to do some of the work yourself.

Actually, it's in the basal ganglia deep within your brain, but as it's not accessible to conscious inspection, it's really not in the "mind."  Typing and playing the piano are learned psychomotor skills, and not easy to change once learned. See David Sudnow's books such as Talk's Body for more on this theme.

I learned to touch-type not only text, but also control-key combinations for formatting and other commands, back in the days of the original CP/M WordStar and WordMaster -- and for those who have some facility with touch-typing, and can find the Ctrl or Alt key without looking, control keys are invaluable for working at a computer keyboard.  

But then IBM moved the control and alt and capslock keys, apparently so people who couldn't type worth **(%*% could find the capslock key easier.  A concession to people who are using the personal computer as a glorified typewriter and had no interest in touch-typing commands (at least, not until they realized how useful they could be).  Stupid.

So I once got a keyboard for my PC that had the control key in the place God intended -- next to the A key, where it's easy to reach. And the Alt key was two keys below this, and the CapsLock key was next to the space key, where it could be accessed when needed -- which is about 100,000 times less often than the control key.  And the Alt keys were along the left where you could touch-type control plus some of the function keys. However, Northgate went out of business, and that keyboard died.

Sigh.  I've had to give up on function keys along the left, although it made lots of sense to me.

BTW, as far as having others be able to use your PC, here is an email exchange that might be of interest:

Great point, thanks!

Actually, since this involves my religious belief that God intended
the Control key to be next to the A key <g>, I adopted a different
approach. I used my Brother labelmaker and put new labels on the
keys so it's apparent to anyone who uses my laptop that the keys have
been remapped. On an old desktop keyboard once I was able to
actually switch the keys, but on most keyboards the keys are of
slightly different sizes so this won't work.

Take care.

"Put the Control key next to the A where God intended it!"

Starting with Windows 95, Microsoft offered a keyboard remap addition, part of the kernel toys setup.  And it worked with Windows 98 and ME.  But not with NT, Windows 2000, or WindowsXP.  I found some information on this in the forum at http://www.annoyances.org, including references to a Microsoft article that explains the new keyboard mapping starting with Windows 2000. If you follow the link at the top right, it contains a link to a Word file that lists the scancodes for the keys:

So, with a little editing of your registry, you can remap these keys yourself!  Great!  

The information on this topic is a bit cryptic for those not used to low-level Windows programming -- even to me, who used to code in A86 Assembler, it's easy to make mistakes.  And indeed, I made some mistakes myself in trying to do this, including putting something in my Registry that made different random keys get exchanged each time I rebooted (just follow the PC World article's advice and leave off the ending 00,00,00,00 null termination to the value in the key and you, too can experience this bizarre twist!)

So here are some key concepts as you read through this material and try to puzzle it out.

Do it Yourself: CapsLock - Control

There are three ways to make these changes to the Registry yourself.  The following instructions assume you want to switch CapsLock and Control; additional information on the triple CapsLock-Control-Alt switch appears at the end.

1: (hard) Edit the Registry Manually. 

Start > Run > RegEdit and press Enter.

Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\

Add a new key named "Keyboard Layout" (without the quotes). (NOT the plural "Keyboard Layouts" which is already there, and which you should not touch)  Within this (singular) "Keyboard Layout" key, add a binary value named "Scancode Map" (without the quotes).  Add the following to this value:

00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,03,00,00,00,1D,00,3A,00,3A,00,1D,00,00,00,00,00

2. (easier) Type In a Text File and Import Into The Registry

Start Notepad, and on the first line of a new file, type REGEDIT4 (in Windows NT 4) or Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 (in Windows 2000 and XP). Press Enter twice, and type [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout]; press Enter.  Now type "Scancode Map"=hex:00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,03,00,00,00,1D,00,3A,00,3A,00,1D,00,00,00,00,00 (including the quotes) and press Enter. When you're done, the result should resemble the lines shown below.  You can also cut the text below and paste directly into Notepad if you wish.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout]
"Scancode Map"=hex:00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,03,00,00,00,1D,00,3A,00,3A,00,1D,00,00,00,00,00,00

3. (extremely easy)

If you are willing to take some risks to avoid having to figure our how to edit your Win2K or WinXP registry correctly, I've saved the appropriate changes for both the CapsLock-Left Control and the CapsLock-Left Control-Left Alt switches that you can download and install.  Using the Registry Editor to delete the Keyboard Layout key deletes the changes.  You can also view it in Notepad or a similar text editor to see how to do it yourself.

Download the text file here: caps-control.txt.  Note that this is just a simple text file and there is no way this can contain a virus (load it in Notepad to check to make sure there is nothing but text).

One you've got the file, rename it using a .reg file extension and save it as "caps-control.reg".  Right-click and select "merge" or simply double-click.

Do it Yourself: CapsLock-Alt-Control

1. (hard) Edit the Registry Manually.

Start > Run > RegEdit and press Enter.

Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\

Add a new key named "Keyboard Layout" (without the quotes). (NOT the plural "Keyboard Layouts" which is already there, and which you should not touch)  Within this (singular) "Keyboard Layout" key, add a binary value named "Scancode Map" (without the quotes).  Add the following to this value:

00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,04,00,00,00,38,00,1D,00,1D,00,3A,00,3A,00,38,00,00,00,00,00

2. (easier) Type In a Text File and Import Into The Registry

Start Notepad, and on the first line of a new file, type REGEDIT4 (in Windows NT 4) or Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 (in Windows 2000 and XP). Press Enter twice, and type [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout]; press Enter.  Now type "Scancode Map"=hex:00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,03,00,00,00,1D,00,3A,00,3A,00,1D,00,00,00,00,00 (including the quotes) and press Enter. When you're done, the result should resemble the lines shown below.  You can also cut the text below and paste directly into Notepad if you wish.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout]
"Scancode Map"=hex:00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,04,00,00,00,38,00,1D,00,1D,00,3A,00,3A,00,38,00,00,00,00,00

3. (extremely easy)

If you are willing to take some risks to avoid having to figure our how to edit your Win2K or WinXP registry correctly, I've saved the appropriate changes for both the CapsLock-Left Control and the CapsLock-Left Control-Left Alt switches that you can download and install.  Using the Registry Editor to delete the Keyboard Layout key deletes the changes.  You can also view it in Notepad or a similar text editor to see how to do it yourself.

Download the text file here: capslock-alt-control.txt.  Note that this is just a simple text file and there is no way this can contain a virus (load it in Notepad to check to make sure there is nothing but text).

One you've got the file, rename it using a .reg file extension and save it as "capslock-alt-control.reg".  Right-click and select "merge" or simply double-click.

Alt -> Windows Key

Greg Narmin emailed to say that he's gotten his right Alt key to remap to become a Windows key. Here is how he did it:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout]
"Scancode Map"=hex:00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,02,00,00,00,5B,E0,38,E0,00,00,00,00

How to Synchronize Your Data between Desktop and Laptop and Palm -- including Outlook and Pegasus Mail

It's nice to have a desktop computer, as you can expand it more than a laptop.  It's also nice to carry around a laptop, especially if it's relatively light.  And Palm Pilots and their clones are handy as well.  But trying to synchronize your data between all three can be a real pain.  But, with the advice here, some relatively inexpensive hardware, and some discipline on your part, you can make it work, and have the relevant parts of your data with you wherever you are.  (If some of the terms don't make sense, download and read Keith and Betty's Recommendations, above, for an explanation.)

The key components to this system are:

  1. Desktop -> Laptop, work on Laptop only
  2. Desktop <- Laptop, work on Desktop only
  3. Repeat over and over and over . . . 

If you're going to try this, it is CRITICAL that you back up your data regularly.  Yes, having a copy on both laptop and desktop is great, and means that your data is backed up on a very frequent basis.  BUT, after years and years using personal computers to store personal data, I am a firm believer in having 2-3 belts AND 2-3 sets of suspenders.  I suggest the following backup methods.  I use ALL of them.

  1. Use backup software and a backup device (I currently have two Iomega 30 GB portable USB/FireWire hard drive I use for this) and about once every 2 weeks, back up both laptop AND desktop (even though a laptop crash may lose little or no data, recreating your laptop setup and programs and reinstalling and upgrading everything can take hours, and hours, and hours, and hours . . . .)
  2. Get LifeSaver, a utility that backs up critical data in ZIP files automatically -- including, if you specify it, your Outlok and Pegasus data.  Set it to run on a regular basis, say, once a week.
  3. Before trying anything new, copy your data files into a temporary subdirectory.  I keep a subdirectory named C:\bak into which I copy my files.

First, let's look at how to synchronize Outlook between desktop and laptop.

Outlook -- How to Sync between Desktop and Laptop

If you set up Outlook in Corporate/Workgroup mode, it can be told to keep all its data in a single Personal Folders file.  Mine is called mailbox.pst, and I keep it in C:\exchange.  Note that this file keeps everything in it -- email (presuming you use Outlook for email -- yechh), memos, calendar, addresses, tasks.  Mine is now about 12 megabytes.  

Sounds like trying to sync such a file would take forever.  But, with a high-speed Ethernet network, and LapLink's SpeedSync technology, only the changed portion of this file is synced, and it only takes a minute or two. 

I suggest that you get all 100baseT as opposed to 10baseT adapters for desktop and laptop -- I have 10 Mb adapters and it's fast, but I wished I'd paid the extra for the 100 Mb/s adapters in the first place.  Only one problem -- my desktop has a free ISA slot but no free PCI slots and 100 Mb/s adapters require PCI.  Sigh.

And that's all there is!  Well, setting this up in the first place is a bit complicated.  Here are my notes about how I did it the first time, and after my laptop crashed and I didn't have a tape backup, twice.  With WinXP and Outlook XP things were much easier, but in case you are working with an older version of Windows or Outlook, I'll leave this posted:

- Run/install Outlook 2000 Corporate Go into Control Panel mail applet Add "Personal Folders" as a Service under the "Keith Conover, M.D., FACEP" profile property choose the C:\exchange\mailbox.pst as the folder rebuild the Outlook taskbar shortcuts if needed Since Netscape Messenger decided to be the mail client, had to edit the Registry to change the default Mail client to "Microsoft Outlook":  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Clients\Mail So Winfax can access the Outlook address list

(NOTE:  if something changes the mail client to NOT be outlook, and you have Internet Explorer 5 or above, and despite Outlook and Windows 98 insisting, you CANNOT change this within Outlook or the Control Panel Applet.  You CAN change this within Internet Explorer itself though!  So you don't have to edit the registry as above.)

Pegasus Mail -- How to Sync between Desktop and Laptop

Pegasus, a freeware email program for Windows (and Mac), is clearly the best email program out there.  It doesn't have all the security holes of Outlook, and it has all the features anyone could ask for.  (Well, actually, that's not true, because people are always asking for more features, and David Harris, the author of the program, is always adding things.)  One of the great reasons to use Pegasus is because almost everything known about it is available online, as for example the list of files referenced in the email below.

I like to use both my laptop and desktop for email and other things, and over the years have perfected the art of keeping the laptop and desktop in sync.  It requires Laplink, a commercial but inexpensive program that can be purchased over the Internet with electronic delivery, and a bit of work.  Here is the text of an email that, I hope, describes how to do this -- at least well enough that you can, with a bit of work, get it working for you!

I will answer both a bit more and a bit less than your precise question with my reply <g>. First, check out

www.vandenbogaerde.net/pegasusmail/pf_pmfiles.html

which will answer most of your questions indirectly.

BTW, you could archive a lot of your work email, so the folders are smaller, and then synchronize. And, if your work computer is available via the Internet, you could use Laplink to do this via the Internet.

I routinely copy my entire Pegasus setup AND messages from laptop and desktop, so I have all of my folders and messages and such with my whether working on my fancy desktop PC with a big screen and lots of complicated (and occasionally unruly) hardware hanging off of it, or my new (or rather my employer's new) 3-lb. HP Omnibook 900B laptop. (I did the same thing with three generations of laptops and several generations of DOS and then Windows software.)

I used to sync my window layout within Pegasus, but now that I have 1024x768 displays on both laptop and desktop, I've found that my window sizes and such, found in the files

desktop.pm0 (that's a zero)

and

state.pmj

don't quite carry over properly, so I quit synchronizing them. (The problem is with the address book window that I keep up all the time.)

I have Laplink 2000 set up to "synchronize" automatically the desktop and laptop C:\pmail\mail folders. (I'm a single user, your mail folder name may reflect your username instead.) I use a file filter of:

*.pm; *.pm5; *.pm6; *.pmc; *.pmf; *.pmi; *.pml; *.pmm; *.pmn; *.pmo; *.pmp; *.pmr; *.pms; *.pmt; *.pmu; 

*.pm!; *.pro; *.pnx

(Note that for Pegasus 4.01 and above, you must add the *.pnx to get the body of saved messages to sync)

One problem -- for versions below 4.0, if you sync *.pml, which are the distribution lists, it will also sync the Replyall.pml file and your replies to long To: and Cc: fields won't work right because the Replyall.pml temporary maillist will have the wrong addresses in it.

I also, however, have to manually copy over queued outgoing messages, or, before I switched to IMAP, unread POP3 messages in my incoming mailbox. This I do by setting up a connection, to be automatically started every time I start Laplink, that allows me to see and move (not copy) these files over if needed. For this, I connect C:\pmail\mail on both laptop and desktop, and set the filter to:

*.pmw *.pmx *.c??

And this shows all messages that you might want to move from one computer to the other.

I find this useful, as I can carry my laptop with me, read and compose lots of replies while out somewhere, and when I get home, copy these, and my changed folder state, over to the desktop. Works great, and with variations I have been doing this since DOS days. Now, if someone wanted to make up a utility to do this without having to use Laplink, just using plain Windows networking, I wouldn't object -- but what I've got works well.

The only caveat with this is you must NOT start working on your desktop until you've synced your laptop to it, or you may lose saved messages. I have, over the years, learned the discipline to do this, and the productivity gains are worth the few early "Oh, no!" experiences, and the little time that it takes.

I also sync lots of other files, including my Mailbox.PST file for Outlook (it may suck as an email client but it's not too bad as a PIM-- though I miss Lotus Agenda and Ecco Pro and a few others that were left in the roadside dust with bullet holes in their heads by Microsoft's monopolistic techniques).

I found I sometimes want to totally synchronize subdirectories, and my "Sync.LLX" LapLink 2000 Sync Agent does this -- but in certain other cases, even with today's big laptop hard drives, I want to only copy over changed files. To accomplish this, I have a separate "Update.LLX" file that accesses the appropriate subdirectories, but only copies over files that are already present on the laptop but edited on the desktop. Sometimes I create a new file in one of these subdirectories on the desktop, and I will then immediately copy it over to the laptop. (More discipline.) I make this easy by leaving the laptop plugged into power and hooked into the Ethernet all the time it's at home -- although I do close Laplink to save system resources. I have a series of saved connections for each of the "not-quite-completely-copied-over" subdirectories, and these are configured such that the newest files appear at the top of each directory listing, which makes it easy to find the new file and copy it over.

BTW, I have tried all sorts of ways to do this, including DOS batch files with DOS Intersrvr.exe over a parallel cable, but my current LapLink 2000 over a 10 Mbps Ethernet connection (I keep an Ethernet card, already connected to an Ethernet hub, hanging off my desktop, at all times) works the best of anything I've tried.

Well, as I said, I've answered more and less than you asked, but I hope this is of some use, and perhaps of some use to those who were contemplating something like I have done, but were afraid to try.

Take care.

REXs, Palms, Visors, and the Edge: ToDo/Task List Priorities

I used to carry a REX with most of my data on it when I didn't have my laptop with me.  It worked, and I upgraded to the REX 6000, which is considerably better than the REX 5/Pro.  But then I dropped it in the parking lot and someone drove over it.  So I decided to take the plunge, go with the flow, or whatever metaphor you prefer, and get a Palm OS handheld.  

Palm and Visor just came out with units that are slim enough to carry all the time, and the Palm OS seems to have major advantages over WinCE.  I decided on a Visor Edge.  At $400 it's not cheap, but it seemed the best buy at the time.  You can't upgrade the operating system via Flash ROM like with the Palm, but the new Palm OS 4.0 has no real major advantages over the 3.5 version that the Visor has -- and the Visor DatebookPlus has significant improvements over the basic Palm OS Datebook, the Visor Address Quick Lookup is nice, too.  And the Edge is indeed a bit smaller than the new, small palms  The color screen on the new slim palm M505 is nice, but isn't as good in bright light as the greyscale Edge screen.  And it eats batteries.  And I suspect that in the near future there will be new GPS and cellphone addons that slide right into the new Edge edge connector, making a very lightweight and capable unit.

With the REX 5/Pro, you could type something at the beginning of each task and, by leaving the task list unsorted in Outlook, get the same list on the REX as on your PC.  

0 1 get milk

0 2 get new faucet washers from hardware store

0 3 etc.

And with the REX, you could sync from either desktop or laptop to the REX -- the REX was basically a data storage and display device, not a data entry device, so by overwriting the REX data each time, there were no problems with syncing from either laptop or desktop.

I'm now syncing my Outlook data (but not email) with the Visor Edge, and I've added the Franklin Planner for Outlook.  It basically improves the Task/ToDo lists in Outlook and on the Palm to where they are usable.  There is a lot of other stuff on Roles, Missions, Goals etc. that I'm not sure you really need on your PC all the time, this stuff should be in your head.  And the Daily Record of Events doesn't work worth anything.  And it's a bit kludgy and slow in many places.  And I recently found out that they DO plan an upgrade to work with Outlook XP, but who knows how long it will take (May 02 as I write this)  (ToDo Plus for the Palm OS is great, but unlike Franklin Planner for Outlook, it doesn't improve the Outlook Task List to the point where it's really usable.)

The problem with the Palm OS compared to the REX is that Palm OS device really ARE pretty good data input devices -- so, unlike the REX, you need to truly sync rather than overwrite the Palm OS device.  And, syncing between three devices -- laptop, desktop, Palm -- is fraught with peril.

Syncing with a Palm OS Handheld PC and Franklin Planner for Outlook - revised

I did finally figure out how to sync one Palm-OS device with two computers, even if you're using Franklin Planner for Outlook. 

First, a word about Franklin Planner for Outlook. I found that Outlook was the best PIM I found (funny, it's also the worst email program I've found) -- as far as being able to sync with many different devices, being able to print out my calendar on computer-Filofax paper, one month to two pages. Nonetheless, for someone who lives by his "to do" list, the Task list in Outlook just sucks. So when looking for something that would allow me to still use Outlook and thus sync with a Palm-OS device and between two computers, I found the Franklin Planner addon for Outlook. It is just a terrible piece of software, and full of bugs and rough edges, and may never be update. Nonetheless, with a little tweaking, it _can_ be used as a reasonable Task list.  Here are the tricks I use, your mileage may differ:

Here is the way to switch from syncing your Palm-OS devices from your desktop to your laptop without duplicates, a message I posted on the Franklin Planner for Outlook support forum:

Visor: Franklin Planner for Outlook syncing
9/16/01 post to FPO website
After some experimentation, I have found what seems to be a reliable way to synchronize between two PCs (directly) and use both PCs to sync with one Palm OS device - without duplication.

This is not for routine use, but can be used every once in a while. For example, I almost always sync my Palm OS device from my desktop PC -- but when going away for a few days, change over so the Palm will sync from my laptop. It does take, depending on the size of your data files, up to about half an hour.

To sync between the the two PCs, copy over the mailbox.pst file. I prefer to use LapLink for this as it's much faster than a simple copy. (LapLink copies only the changed portion of the file.)

Procedure to change from desktop syncing to laptop syncing:

1. Sync desktop and laptop mailbox.pst files with LapLink or another methods.

2. Backup your mailbox.pst file (copy to another name, or into another directory, or do as I do and use shareware LifeSaver's custom backup feature).

3. Configure HotSync so all the FPO conduits are set to "do nothing." (Do NOT make this the default.) Perform a HotSync. This backs up all the databases.

4. Configure HotSync so that all the FPO conduits are set to "laptop overwrites handheld." Perform a HotSync. This now sets you up to be able to perform syncs from your laptop without duplicates.

NOTE:  Do NOT enter anything on your Palm between your last sync on your desktop and your first sync with the laptop (or vice versa).  You HAVE to do an overwrite from laptop (or desktop) to the Palm to get this to work!

Reverse the procedure once you get home.

If you try this procedure, and have either success or failure, please report it here!

Now if I can just find a way to scroll up and down the task list on my Palm, automatically renumber tasks on my Palm, etc. . . .

Maps, GPS, Laptops, and Palm OS Handhelds
