AHK-second-keyboard is my AHK script for remapping my primary keyboard and for implementing a full second macro keyboard.
This script requres you to install AutoHotKey
AutoHotInterception is the layer that distinguishes between keyboards, if you use another method the script will have to be modified accordingly.
You will have to modify .AHK/.ahk to #include AutoHotInterception as follows:
#include %A_LineFile%\..\VARIABLES.ahk
#include %A_LineFile%\..\GLOSSARY.ahk
#include %A_LineFile%\..\KEYMAP.ahk
#include %A_LineFile%\..\REM_AST.ahk
#include DRIVE:\path\to\AHI\AutoHotInterception\Lib\AutoHotInterception.ahkUse AutoHotInterception/Monitor.ahk or similar to find your keyboards HID and and add it to AHK-second-keyboard.ahk:KBS. As such my KBS looks like [[0x1EA7,0x0907],[0x0461,0x0010]] where [0x1EA7,0x0907] is my primary keyboard.
If you want to add or change any of the macro keys it is reccommended you use the KEYMAP rather than direct editing. To interact with the KEYMAP use AHK-second-keyboard.ahk:parseKey.
The GLOSSARY is organised in an n-dimensional array and recursively traversed by AHK-second-keyboard.ahk:displayGloss
KEYMAP[(Str)"KEY"][(Int)STATE]The STATE integer is built with the following flags:
| MODIFIER | STATE | VALUE | VALUE (hex) |
|---|---|---|---|
| DEFAULT | 0b0000_0000 | 0x00 | |
| L_SHIFT | CAPS | 0b0000_0001 | 0x01 |
| R_SHIFT | NEGATED | 0b0000_0010 | 0x02 |
| L_ALT | UPSIDE_DOWN | 0b0000_0100 | 0x04 |
| R_ALT | BLACKBOARD_BOLD | 0b0000_1000 | 0x08 |
| L_CTRL | TO_GREEK | 0b0001_0000 | 0x10 |
| R_CTRL | 0b0010_0000 | 0x20 |
RA maps the scan code hotkeys to the corresponding letter
VARIABLES.ahk stores constant data
