I discovered a trick (albeit a somewhat awkward one) that you or some of your users might find helpful for working around the Pause/Break key limitation. I’d be really great to have a user-specific keyboard setup in windows. That would make for SharpKeys v2.0, now wouldn’t it? I believe that somehow through this method of changing the keyboard layout, one should be able to define a user-specific keyboard layout with self-defined keys on a per-user basis without requiring a reboot. (translated from my german XP Home install, wording might be slighty different on native english install). Just consider that for foreign countries, there is the chance to change the keyboard layout without a reboot: through Control Panel – Region and Language Settings – Language – Text Services and Input languages – Details. I would like to change the keyboard layout for just one specific user, not messing up the keyboard layout for the other users. The background: I have different users (set up as XP Home user accounts, not administrators) set up at my XP Home install. Here’s what SharpKeys really needs to have for the next version: A USER SPECIFIC SETUP! (which would probably also help for David Sussillos Problem three posts above mine).
