Hi everyone.

I have a problem with passing CTRL+F1 to a program i'm running in dosbox (under windows). When i press it, the keymapper opens. i don't want that. All i want is for the keystroke to pass to my program. Wiki/FAQ did not help. How can this be done?

Thanx.

Thanks for replying. I thought of that but i've never paid much attention to the keymapper because i had not understood how it works. I looked once again in the wiki but it didn't help much. At the end i noticed the "mapper" button and i figured out how to do it. Perhaps the wiki needs some more detailed examples. This "mod1, mod2" stuff are clever but not very intuitive. It's not easy for the user to guess what to do.

Anyway many thanks for the help and for dosbox itself.

readme has nice examples, but guess nobody reads them
