There is a new key handling system in the works, which will make it easier
to have different key
mapping depending on the game. When this happens it would free up the "X"
button in non-Indy games.

Well, I realize that it's been over a year since I posted this request,
without my responding . . . But Marcus, could you possibly map the "." key
to a combination of A and X? It's unfortunate that X is spent on shift
when it's only in use in Indy3. If A+X is not possible, perhaps some other
button combination?

Thanks!

Pressing LMB+RMB is treated like pressing "Escape", which will skip
cutscenes, but won't work as "talkstop" replacement.

However, at least for the WinCE port, there is a hack in input.cpp which
maps a special key event generated by the WinCE backend to *either* the
talkstop key, *or* escape, depending on whether there is active text or
not. I think this could be cleaned up and turned into a general feature...

And which free buttons would those be? I can add it to Z, C or D, if you
have a controller with
one of those buttons. Otherwise it's pretty full:

A = LMB
B = RMB
X = shift key for boxing in Indy3
Y = space (for pause)
START = F5 (for load and save)
L = virtual keyboard
R = reserved for a popup menu if there ever has to be more functions added,
which
can not be handled by the virtual keyboard

Anyway, doesn't LMB+RMB (A+B) work to skip dialogue?
