WAY OT- 2 keyboards on one computer?
« on: August 04, 2003, 11:11:54 am »

I have Windows 2000 US english.
Set to hebrew as second language.
A keyboard with english letters and hebrew letters..

At the same can i set french as third language?

If yes ,can i have a second keyboard [ a french one ] plug on my computer ?
And use the one i need?

PS: i know that ,if i type Shift + VFR+ Cap Look +vfrewt + Alt + wash dishes i can get a ' on the e.

But you do not think i can be able EVER to remember it?
DO YOU ?

Agreed...

Should work in the same way a notebook can use both an external mouse and it's onboard mouse.

Gm...sorry for the redundancy, but Zev asked moi to take a look at this.

gmonkey

In this case  , it is better to set one to USB and the other
to PS/2 ?
My main keyboard is the English/hebrew one.With english use at around 85+%

But all my mails to family ,friends  with e without ' is kind of english without H in tHe ,THerefore ,tHem ,tHen.
Well ,not really ,but  kind of.

I asked Xen The Great ,cause i did not see your answer.
Not because i did not trust your answer.

To Xen The gREAt:

What do you mind by Morpheus?
A Hillary Software?
Or an grec god?
If the second ,Morpheus is the good of SLEEP .
So better to use another one...

Beside this OGG rules ..until you listen to MPC
But OGG players would ,soon ,be out. NEVER a MPC player ...so .......

But OGG is SO MUCH BETTER than MP3...

Hey ,Xen ,we are now starting a 1234567890 posts.......

But ,i like so much to mess around... that i have to say that i like so much O[ rgasm for] G {entry ] G[entlewomen and Gentlemen] format ..

Listening to: 'L'Adjudant Gereux' from 'Billy Ze Kick et les Gamins en folie' by 'Billy Ze Kick et les Gamins en folie' on Media Center 9.1

Now that i'am an adult ,i'am an moron

I'am still annoying  people
But now ,i 'am on payroll..............
To do it.

Zev,

I did my usual paraphrasing, it was "No one can be told what the Matrix is, you have to see it for yourself".

> we are now starting a 1234567890 posts

1 Billion+ posts? That's incredible! Who did the billionth?

This is quite simple. If you, as a user, make a claim about the quality or general ability of an encoder/decoder/etc to perform in a given situation (for example) which happens to be contrary to pre-existing data, but then do not supply supportive information when discussion follows, you are likely to be receive harsh responses to your posts.

Z - have you tried charmap to just to get those extra characters? If you put a shortcut to it in your 'quick launch' bar it might be a much easier solution than extra keyboards.

Also  dont forget you can have windows set up to multiple languages and have an icon to the Languages in the system tray so you can easily switch between languages (on the computer even though your keyboard will still have the same buttons which might be a problem for those non touch typers).

I have 2 keyboards and mice connected to my computer. One set is hooked up to the PS2 to ports the other set (keyboard and mouse) are cordless and connected via USB. I have had no problems with this set up. I would assume there are cordless keyboards available for different languages.
