international keyboard in Risc PICO

Hello forum,

how i am able switching RiscOS/Pico to an international keyboard ?

after booting i am getting the BBC Basic prompt .. but just with EN keyboard setup

Use e.g.

*country germany

to switch to German keyboard layout (and alphabet at the same time). To find out which countries are available, type

*countries

You can make this a permanent selection by using

*configure country germany

it is then stored in CMOS. Note that different builds of RISC OS have different selections of countries available.

Hello Steffen,

yes .. i also was thinking this – but switching to “Germany” doesnt give you: äöüß

*Keyboard [country name]

I think if country does not work, then keyboard does also not work. Maybe the “International” module (or was it IntKey?) has been stripped down for the Pico build?

I know that RISC OS 3.10 did not have the German keyboard layout built in.

I have try Pico this morning but only with my Lapdock.

>QUIT to exit BASIC
*keyboard Germany

Z and Y are on the right place (not after start and not with *co. country germany).
öäüß are not given.
I have also try *alphabet(s)… no changes.
