Is it possible to do this on Mac? Have a second, external keyboard mapped to a different language than the primary keyboard?

- Kagerjay 8y agoWith lua + autohotkey scripts in windows this is definitely possible the last time I checked. You run a luascript on another keyboard mapped to a generic key, luascript inputs that as the proper text-based language There's a tomscott video on it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lIFE7h3m40U https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lIFE7h3m40U Checkout Teran van Hemert (linustechtips editor) for some potential ideas too. He's got crazy macro schemas, I've used a couple of his and there great. All windows based as well though. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLH1gH0v9E3ruYrNyRbHhDe6XDfw4sZdZr https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLH1gH0v9E3ruYrNyRbHhD... Mac, I can only assume its something you would write in applescript. But maybe you find some interesting ideas there. I found something called "http://www.orderedbytes.com/controllermate/" http://www.orderedbytes.com/controllermate/" that might be of interest to you

- egypturnash 8y agoYou could use Karabiner[1]. No need to do the “different language” hack, just make a big pile of key remappings that only affect that particular keyboard. It’s pretty easy to target just one input device with that. 1: https://pqrs.org/osx/karabiner/ https://pqrs.org/osx/karabiner/
