Re: [B2-devel] Fix for wrong tilde key in Windows SheepShaver keystrokes

[Ronald P. R. <ron...@xs...>]

Interestingly, the problem did not occur on Mac OS X when the original (unmodified, 1997-2005) keycodes file was used. There may now be a problem on Mac OS X when that keycodes file is used.

(Can't check this because it is still impossible to build SheepShaver in Snow Leopard.)
