would anyone know how it would be possible to make an adapter from a standard at/ps2 keyboard to an amstrad at pc keyboard input.

i know the amstard at keyboards are propriotory and none standard, ther emust be a way to read the port from the pc and determin what its asking the the keyboard and what the keyboard is replying to make an adapter so that we can plug a stock at/ps2 keyboard in and when a key is prest the right codes are sent.

of does anyone know anyone who could do this.
i am willing to loan out one of my amstrads with keyboard to help with this.

Maybe something along these lines - https://github.com/somhi/AmstradXTPS2
