hot keys?

Is there a way to set key board keys to specific tasks? I wish my key board
had "delete" and "enter" on the far left side of the key board the same way
I use "Esc" and "Ctl" instead of reaching over to the right side of the key
board as I use those keys frequently and operate the mouse with my right
hand. I've looked at all of the options in SW key board options and didn't
find anything. While I'm asking, is there a key board that has the number
pad on the left side? That would make ergonomic sense.

Thanks in advance

"Delete" and "Enter" on the right is exactly what I wanted too. I didn't
search too much for a special keyboard but I did solve the problem by
getting a 5 button mouse and programming the two extra keys.

Great for other applications too and you can have different settings for
each application if you want.

I did some design work on a special keyboard for a company called
KeyPoint Technologies (www.keypoint-tech.com). You'll find some
renderings of a three segment keyboard on their site (and one pic on my
own site). One of the three segments is the keypad segment, and the
other two basically split the normal QWERTY keys down the middle and
with some extra keys that can be programmed. The keypad could easily be
placed on the left side. I'm not sure whether the thing is in
production yet . . . I think not. But you can check it out. It looked
good for people with special needs. I'm so used to regular QWERTY
however that anything else would slow me down.

Hi
I wanted to swop keys too (cola sticky keys on a laptop ;-)

Found a GR8 program called KeyTweak
http://webpages.charter.net/krumsick/

works seamlessly !

I then just swopped over the keys - ended up with delete in a better position too !

You can pick up a USB 10 key pad pretty cheap. I've got one from
Targus. They are made for laptops, but work fine as an extra 10key
with a standard keyboard. No drivers, no software, no hassles.
