Remap F keys on a model M with Soarer's running in osx

Hi all,

I'm experimenting with using the Model M on my modern mac.
So far it's excellent. I didn't expect it to work this well.
The only issue I have this far is that I'm missing the volume button on the keyboard.
Is there a way of remapping F11 and F12 to change the volume?

Thanks!

You would need to add this part to your sc file:

Code: Select all

remapblock
  F11           MEDIA_VOLUME_DOWN
  F12           MEDIA_VOLUME_UP
endblock
or

Code: Select all

remapblock
  F11           MEDIA_VOLUME_UP
  F12           MEDIA_VOLUME_DOWN
endblock
Depending on what you want to achieve.

Oh, crap, I bought my Teensy already programmed haha. I guess I have to learn how to program it :)
Well, I have messed around with Arduino's and ESP8266. I'll assume it's easy enough.

Many thanks!

That shouldn't be too hard.
Which Teensy do you have ?

I had to check, I think it's Teensy 2.0.
I bought it as an assembled board with the teensy soldered to the board.
And I just realized that I need to remap Alt-Gr too.

Thanks!
