New happy ducky owner here, trying to make more keymap independent commands/scripts and got an idea...
In Windows, wouldn't it be possible to enter individual characters with alt + keypad keys? For example alt + 5 8 for a colon (:).
STRING e:\
could then be written like
ALT KEYPAD_1 KEYPAD_0 KEYPAD_1
ALT KEYPAD_5 KEYPAD_8
ALT KEYPAD_9 KEYPAD_2
I've looked in the Ducky Encoder source, so it should at least be possible with one key, like
ALT KEYPAD_3
to act as holding left alt and pressing keypad 3 - but testing shows it does not work. MODIFIER_ALT seems to be used when Encoder reads ALT + key, and it has has the same code as MODIFIER_LEFT_ALT in keyboard.properties.
But even if it would work, another/longer syntax would be needed, since ALT needs too be held during all 2-3 numbers to write any usable characters. Any thoughts? Could not find any mention regard this in the forum.
