[38c/Mac/PPC] "M" key not working with a frenc
« on: March 21, 2008, 04:31:00 am »

Hello everyone,

I'm adding up the shortcomings:
- I'm french
- I'm using a Mac

For the first time since I started playing, I needed to use the "m" key to try and tame a large animal in my kennel (I was planning into breeding some deers for a more stable meat supply).
Fact is that the "m" key is not recognized by DF: when I'm trying to change the key binding, DF does not register the push on this key.

So there,

 Steph

I normally use the Dvorak keyset myself, and I've noticed that DF doesn't handle it properly either. I believe this is a known bug mentioned in the readme file; pretty much you'll just have to switch to Qwerty to play.
