Since this is the first class documented in the Game Kit I also added
a reference to the Game Kit to the API docs front page.
Due to a missing entry in Keymap's Jamfile, the localized strings of
ModifierKeysWindow.cpp are not yet included in the corresponding catalog
on HTA.
The attached patch adds ModifierKeysWindow.cpp to DoCatalogs and changes 'Ok' to 'OK'.
Fixes#8127
This started off as just being a page to detail the key codes since I find
myself constantly referencing the BeBook page on the subject and it is
horribly broken. However, the page has grown to detail many of the keyboard
related methods and constants defined in InterfaceDefs.h as well. A very
long and detailed explanation of the key_map structure is included.

reliably change your modifier keys.
The dialog box is shown by selecting the new 'Set Modifier Keys...'
option under the File menu. This brings up a window which contains 4
dialog boxes labeled: Caps Lock, Control, Option, and Command.
Each of the labels in followed by a drop down box which allows you to select
from one of the other keys listed. So for instance you could switch the Caps
Lock and Control keys but selecting the 'Control' option next to Caps Lock and
the 'Caps Lock' option next to Control.
The Caps Lock menu has an additional option which I find appealing...
'Disable' which, as it sounds, disables your Caps Lock key.
At the bottom of the dialog there are 3 buttons, 'Cancel', 'Revert', and 'Ok'.
'Cancel' and 'Ok' are self explanatory. The 'Revert' button, which is
initially disabled, puts you back into the state that you were when you first
opened the dialog.

This is coming from but does not close#7967
Adds a new (currently unused) Menu key bitmap.
Instead of having a single AltAsCommandKey() method the menus now
show the correct bitmap when you switch between your control,
windows/option, and alt/command keys. This is really not flushed
out yet since it only works when you switch those keys and not
other combinations like say switching the control and caps lock
keys but it is a step in the right direction.

Deskcalc already contains support for all the functions in scientific mode
but up until now you had to know what they were called and type them in to
figure them out. Scientific mode gives you access to most of the available
functions via buttons.
Pushing one of the the scientific mode buttons inserts the function name
along with an innertube () at the current cursor location. If you have some
text highlighted when you push a scientific mode button it will put that
text inside the innertube. So you can type 0.5, then highlight the text with
the mouse, and then push the sin button and you will get sin(0.5).
The contextual menu has been altered to support the new mode.
Instead of having a single show keypad option in the contextual menu there
are 3 new options instead. Compact mode, Basic mode, and Scientific mode.
Basic mode is the default mode showing the basic keypad. Compact mode is the
same as show keypad turned off, showing just a bare text field. Scientific
mode is the new mode which adds buttons for the different transcendental
functions and constants that Deskcalc supports. You can also use Alt+0, Alt+1,
and Alt+2 keyboard modifiers to switch between the modes.
In addition to accepting the word 'pi' for the circumference of the unit
circle, Deskcalc now also recognizes the UTF-8 character π which has a
dedicated button in scientific mode. I also changed the parser so that
lowercase 'e' always means Euler's number and uppercase 'E' always means
'times 10 to the' so 1E5 means 1 times 10 to the 5th.
Another small tweak I did was to adjust the minimum basic mode width so that
the window is flush with the tab.
I also renamed fColums to fColumns, took out some spaces and other style
changes and bumped the version to 2.2.0.

try to move or rename an important system folder with a macro so that
translators do not try and translate the name of the OS. I struggled
to find a global place where the OS name could be pulled from instead of
using a #define in FSUtils.cpp. I ended up grabbing the system name from the
utsname struct. This is identical to what is outputted by 'uname -s' which is
the word 'Haiku'.

The natural order comparison method used in Deskbar is the same method used
to sort file names in natural order in Tracker.
Also when comparing window titles to their corresponding window menu item
labels use the FullTitle() method instead of the Label() method because the
label might get truncated.

that appear when you try to rename or move an important system folder such
as 'system' or 'config' from the generic (and a little non-standard) 'Do It'
to a proper verb such as 'Rename' or 'Move'.
I take localization into account, there are now 3 different variables that
need to be translated, first is %ifYouDoAction which is the action verb in
one form, second is %toDoAction which is the action verb but in a different
form, and third is %toConfirmAction which is the text that appears on the
button label itself. Although in English there is no distinction between
%ifYouDoAction and %toDoAction (both use the same verb e.g. rename) there
is a distinction in other languages such as German.
Comments are provided in English and German using B_TRANSLATE_COMMENT as a
help for translators. I had some help from DeadYak and Humdinger getting the
German translations right since I only speak English (thanks guys). Humdinger
also directed me to the verb form translation issue in the first place.
I also removed the OSNAME macro and just use 'Haiku' instead since we aren't
maintaining an OpenTracker port for BeOS anymore. Ingo aka bonefish indicated
that this change could be a bit of a problem for distributions (were there
any) but if we actually wanted to support distributions we'd want to use a
global OSNAME macro somewhere else as I am sure the word 'Haiku' must appear
in the source in other places.

ThinkPad X1 and ThinkPad X100e keyboards. The name of these layout files
correspond to the model that introduced them and should cover every US and
international laptop made by IBM and Lenovo except Japanese (and perhaps some
other Asian locale) versions.
Like the Apple Aluminum keyboard layouts these are neatly tucked away in a
ThinkPad submenu in the Keymap preference app.
Removed the 'IBM Laptop International' keyboard layout file which has been
superseded by 'ThinkPad International'. Closes#8021

existing 'Apple Aluminium' keyboard layout to 'Apple Aluminium Extended
International.' The 3 new layout files are US mini and extended version
as well as an international mini version. This completes #7964
International corresponds to keyboard layouts for all locales except the US
and Japan. I have Japanese Apple Aluminum keyboard layout files almost
ready but I first need to determine what the special kana and eisu keys
are mapped to.
The Apple Aluminum keyboard layout files are tucked away in an Apple Aluminum
subdirectory. The Keymap preference app has been modified to turn
subdirectories into submenus of the Layout menu.
HaikuImage has been modified to include each keyboard layout file in the
image individually as recommended by Ingo.

items when you switch away from expando mode. It does this by keeping a list of
expanded item signatures in a fExpandedItems BList on the BarView class. I
can't use team_id because there can be more than one team per application.
If you have checked the 'Expand new applications' option in the Deskbar
preferences then the signatures of new applications will be added to the
fExpandedItems list expanding the item. If you open a new application while
not in expando mode then the app will be expanded upon returning to expando
mode.
Since 'Expand new applications' automatically adds any new item's signature
to the fExpandedItems list Tracker is expanded on startup since it is 'new'.
Also if Deskbar is restarted all applications will be considered 'new' so they
are expanded. This fixes ticket #4830
