Hello Techmaster and everyone else

As you have read in other posts , the fire button on the toshiba e310 doesn't work , and it's frustrating

I thought , what the heck , let's recompile and change the key codes , I downloaded Microsoft embedded visual c++ 3.0
( it's free ). As a Unix ( sgi,linux )professional user , I was "disturbed" by the microsoft environment

If i'm able to generate a good *.exe I'll send my code to
Techmaster , but I'm sure he'll be able to do the change
with the following info



dear Techmaster , here is some info on my toshiba
I used buttonfinder and I got the following codes
SPI_GETOEMINFO "Toshiba e310"

from left to right, hotkeys
Calendar button : 0xC1
Note button : 0xC2
home button : 0xC3
contact button :0xC4
---------------
Navigation key :
left 0x25
up : 0x26
right: 0x27
down: 0x28
pushing the navigation key ,
enter : 0x0D
-----------------------
Record key : 0xC5

You can answer me at
lamorlette@pacbell.net


Techmaster , if you need more info on my toshiba to proceed let me know

Suggestion : instead of hard coding the key codes
it would be nice to have a separate ASCII file describing
the code of your pocket pc
something like :
Keys.MCE

B1 = 0xC1
B2 = 0xC2
Esc =0xC3
fire 1 : 0x0D

so any new pocket pc would work immediatly without waiting for an update .

An even more elegant possibility would be to ask
questions like :
Click on your fire key ! and you could record and save such
a file .

I don't want to finish this post on something like "Hey guys , here is what you should do " so let's praise
techmaster and all the others folks.
I think that all the people participating to the MAME project do an unbelivable work and thanks to them I can still play arkanoid , and for that
thank you 10000 times .
