Keyboard Rebinding?

[maqz]

I'm not sure how possible this is. Aside from the basic trouble of remapping, how is your computer to tell the signal from one keyboard from the other? But I'll let the more technically minded handle that part.

My solution for the "I'm too cheap to buy an X-Keys (despite my ridiculously expensive computer and nearly 40 bucks on month on WoW) problem" was to get a USB Numberpad. They make them mostly for laptops. It's simply a stand alone numberpad. Which is nice for keybindings since numpad numbers are counted as different strokes than the top row numbers that most people already have spells bound to. It's not programmable in any way, so you'll have to work your keybindings to match the lay out, but it is a handy extra bunch of buttons. Maybe less useful if you're already using a keyboard, but if you are using a gamepad (like my Nostromo) then it's pretty handy.

Mapping two keyboards to different keys is not trivial. A program like msklc only translates (scancode to keycode, or is it the other way around?). Both keyboards send the same scancodes, so you can't remap one and leave the other as it was. You could tape down all modifiers on one keyboard though.

I also have a usb numpad that I try to use. But modifiers doesn't work with those buttons, and the fact that it's never in exactly the same place (have to look down to press a button) makes it difficult to use. Although I guess an X-keys would also be hard to reach.
