Zaurus SL-5500 & snes9x-SDL
« on: April 16, 2004, 12:44:26 am »
I\'ve installed the SDL library and the snes9x-sdl emulator on a Sharp Zaurus 5500 running the latest version of OpenZaurus(3.3.5). Although the emulator works great(http://www.suhami.net/zaurus/index.cgi?Emulator%2Fsnes9x), I was wondering if anyone knew how to change the key mappings. I\'ve tried using the environment variable:

export S9XKEYS=27,100,99,115,120,97,122,13,32,103,106,117,110,121,98,105,109

but that did nothing. I tried numerous combinations of numbers but the key mappings remained the same. If anyone has done this, I would really appreciate a reply.

P.S. Rotating the screen back to vertical would almost be as good. The emulator tilts the screen and that is what makes the keys useless.

look at this:

allot of japanese charachters but it should give you an idea of what is going on.

basicly the japanese parts says that you can leave the last few keycodes off the export and it will leave those keys to the default.

In other words, the last 6 keycodes are LEFT,RIGHT,UP,DOWN,L+U,L+D,R+U,R+D.  you probably will not want to change those directional keys.  SDL knows to change left to up while the screen is rotated.

try this: export S9XKEYS=27,100,99,115,120,97,122,13,32
