Italian Keyboard Layout for AEKMAP with accented characters.Tested with WM5 3.3

I made this Wizard Italian Keyboard Layout for AEKMap with accented characters mapping because I installed an WM5 AKU 3.3 Rom in my Italian Wizard and i could not use accented characters.
I hope it is bug free, only two characters have strange mapping now:
- = (shift+win)
_ = (AccentKey+X)
Other characters work well, you can continue using Ok,Win & Tab.
Make me know if is there any bug.

Revision N.1
Bug found/fixed: you could only use X & _ but not x.

Hello,
could you please help me out with a problem that you clearly solved? Since there is not much documentation on AEKmap, I can not use it.
My desperate need is for the Excalibur (Dash, Cosmo). It does not have German Umlauts on hw keys. I want to reprogram it like this.
Best case: Use FN-key (code 00EC)
Key "a" pressed: a, Key FN, then "a": Umlaut-a (ä), Key FN twice, then "a": the symbol that is blue on key "a".
If that can not be done, I have a keycode (00F1) of another hw key that I could use to get Umlaut-a.
I have trouble defining this stuff, it does not accept Accentkey2 to be defined. I do not know how to load, when I need soft reset, how to switch between layouts etc. In fact, I can not even do the simplest remapping.
I know this is asking a lot, but there is no description on the web how to use this potentially powerful tool. Could you please write a few lines? I take it from there.
Thanxx, Mixx

I don't use it anymore,anyway try writing this in a .aek file:
Layout yourLayout
Hint YourLayout
AccentKey 007A ;Blue dot + space
AccentKey2 007A ;(Blue dot + space) x 2 times
key 0041 c0061 c00E4 c00E4 ; a ä ä
In this case I use "ä" two times, you can substitute the second one with the Unicode key of that symbol,i don't know what do you have as blue symbol on "a",on my layout I have "!" that is c0021.
The syntax is c+Unicode.
The first one, without the c, is what do you want substitute.
Put comments after ";" .
Try this or modify it and let me know.

Fn - Space. Help needed!!

I have been looking in the forum for a solution for the Tilt keyboard. Everytime I ask, someone usually responds pointing me to the Tilt Keyboard Fix cab, that was posted by Taurus Bulba. Installing the cab results in the keyboard being mapped with the ATT layout (enables the CWS layout in the registry). This makes every fn key work as it should, but it kills the Fn+Space combination.
When you key Fn and Space after a character, the characters changes as per what is defined in sym049.txt (or whatever symxxx.txt file you have in the windows directory, depending on your language).
For example, if you type an "a", press Fn and Space, you get an á, then à, and â, etc. Same with other characters. This is important for those that write in foreign languages that require accents or special characters like ñ, ç, € (Euro currency sign), "£" (British pound sign), and any other letter with an accent.
I think the issue is with the CWS layout (CWS being Cingular/ATT). That layout doesn't have the Fn+Space in it; the Hermes keyboard had a blue "á" and "ü" written on the top left corner of the Space bar, indicating that Fn and Space will result in accentuated characters. The Tilt doesn't have those and in fact, when you install an original ATT Rom (no need for keyboard fix there), the Fn+Space combination doesn't work.
The only way I've seen to get Fn-Space back to life is NOT to use the CWS layout. Using any non ATT Rom will allow you to get Fn-Space working, but at the cost of getting many of the other Fn keys mapped wrong: for example, the "!" and the "@" are swapped, the ";" gives you a "%", and so on.
Sounds like the solution would be a keyboard layout that is 99% like the CWS layout, but that adds the Fn-Space combination.
Any suggestions?

Fixing "Fn Space" feature
This kills the word suggestion feature, but enables you to use the FN-Space function again:

How to customize HTC Keyboard?

Hello,
Lucky you English typers The point is that I live in Poland where we have also special characters. On PC I can get those character by pressing Alt + letter. But what about my HTC?
I tried to use Polish T9, but after installation I get the following:
- indeed I have Polish dictionary - ok
- in compact QWERTY I can type special characters (you can change characters by pressing proper button a few times) - ok
- in compact QWERTY the buttons are associated with normal letters and also Polish characters (when I press for example "l" I get words starting with both "l" and Polish characted similar to "l") - ok
- in compact QWERTY I don't have symbols panel - keyboard area is getting black - wrong
- in full QWERTY there is no way to input Polish characters (by pressing "l" for the second time I would like to get such a character) - wrong
- in full QWERTY the buttons are associated only with normal letters so it is almos impossible to use T9 - wrong
So question to all of you - is there any way to customize this keyboard?
Currently black sumbols screen (compact QWERTY only) gets me crazy. Furthermore it would be superb to be able to modify default grey characters (the one that apprears when you press and hold the button) on full QWERTY. Any ideas?

Im interested in other way how to havo only full keyboard or only keypad because I never use compact keyboard and I can save some storage space and also situation for switching between keyboards...
