Please, please re-implement the search function for PMs!

Still not being able to search my PMS is becoming a serious hindrance.

Ah Kbdfr..you are lifesaver. Shall I PM you?

Yes, please.

I can offer 150 new original Tipro light grey relegendable keycaps with transparent lids
shipped to the UK (as a registered letter, i.e. tracked and insured) in a sturdy cardboard box for 20€.

I seem to have neglected this thread :D Found that pic on my computer, probably downloaded from an ad years ago: KB-128.JPG So your keyboard is a KB-128, and as Lanrefni wrote, probably an older Protech version. You can find the programming manual online (in German), but it will probably not be much...

[…] point out that it is better to have modifiers easily reachable by thumbs than trying to stretch pinkies for them. […] Would look less biased if instead of " trying to stretch " you had simply written " stretching " pinkies for modifiers :lol: As a matter of fact, using your pinkies is simply a ...

[…] @kbdfr: Well, if you use keyboard a little then I can agree that ergonomics is not important. But it is nice to have ergonomic keyboard since it is more comfortable. People who touch type (almost half of the deskthority users) do not need to hunt modifier keys with pinkies. And when one is not ...

Nonsense. […] If you are already devoting your time to design a new layout then at least do something sensible. Something your hands will thank you for in the log run by not developing disorders from excessive keyboard use ... or developing them later at least. That means left/right split design, m...

Do you intend to harvest the switches?

[…] One caveat is that Tipro with USB controllers are 2KRO boards, That is correct. If there is a combination which triggers the beep, you simply program it on another key. and there are some key combinations you cannot program with their macro software, e.g. any key combo with "SHIFT" involved, an...

So I visit a based-web editor giving me a firmware file, then plug in a teensy (well, I would first have to purchase such a thing), open an app and click a button to flash the firmware. What do I do then with the teensy? Does it have to be connected to my keyboard? And when yes, how? Do I have to op...

[…] If you have no inclination to manually edit .c files QMK Configurator allows you to design your layout then compile it,you then download the completed hex and flash the boards,it's pretty easy to figure out . I confess I have not the slightest idea how to compile anything and even less how to f...

[…] my new "Kibodo* Score System" which rate 1 to 10 in each section such as: - Construction quality (If construction quality is about an IBM Model M it will be a 10!) […] So plastic rivets doomed to break get a 10? https://www.cosgan.de/images/more/bigs/c055.gif I love making friends :mrgreen:

You could opt for the Cherry G81-8308, which has a standard layout plus 24 programmable keys, but it is somewhat limited in scope as you can only program strokes from keys which the keyboard itself has, and above all - it has crappy MY switches. What you are looking for is clearly Tipro. Tipro is a ...

They do differ. Here's a (bad) photo of both keyboards: NCR and Goupil - boards.jpg and a (bad) photo of Goupil F caps on top of NCR caps: NCR andGoupil caps.JPG Put simply, Goupil caps are darker and have somewhat lighter legends than NCR caps. The difference is visible enough to make mixing caps f...

Please, please re-implement the search function for PMs!

I have kept the board for some months, its in very good condition when I got it, but still confused about what it is. […] its green alps switch if caps removed. " if caps rermoved "? I would bet it still has green alps switches if you don' remove the caps. But of course I could be wrong. After all,...

Model M: not the battle hardened tank of keyboards it’s made out to be. Honestly, I’d smack someone upside the head with a plate mounted Cherry over an M any day. Only the Model Fs were made for street fighting. I can't speak to Model F's (or all Chery boards) but my Model M's would likely make way...

Done.
Now I know how to heal the blind: disable your ad blocker.

On the right, where your avatar is. Look in the bottom right hand corner.

One feature I really like in the new design is the "back to top" icon on the thread pages. Is there any way to have this on the spy page also?

I must be blind, I just can't find such an icon.

Come on, guys, there's someone needing help, let's restrict oursevles to constructive posts

Ah, back in the good old days when software choice holy wars were about open and closed, Gates and Stallman. […]

Nowadays we have switch choice holy wars

Not sure I dare suggest that perhaps pulling the cable may have resulted in broken rivets,
in turn causing the erratic keyboard behaviour described.

[…]After all, repairing the broken rivets (which by the way requires a special tool in order to just open the case) proves you're a real keyboard expert, while any Cherry board still functioning flawlessly after 25+ years of use is just for ordinary plebeians who obviously don't know better about q...

I can‘t take ModelM praise seriously any more. You‘re either a troll or a noob if you claim the Model M is good for anything other than filling material when pouring a concrete foundation. Come on, Wodan, just because the plastic rivets in a Model M will inevitably break some time you cannot be so ...
