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 .
