KbdEdit

Even though your keyboard is fitted with over 100 buttons, sometimes there might be the need for more. Various work fields require use of specialized characters which can be a pain to manually look for in a list and insert each time. Luckily, applications like KbdEdit give you the possibility to change what each button on your keyboard does, and create multiple layouts to suit any need.

One of the most useful features of the application is that it gives you the possibility to assign up to 6 characters for a main button, in combination with either shift, control or alt. This can be done with any available button on your keyboard so it is needless to mention possibilities.

To further enhance creation possibilities you are able to import custom characters you can assign to keys. Every step of the way you can view unicode text or each character in case you further want to use it in various projects.

A preview section puts a text field at your disposal and lets you experiment with newly created layouts to figure out how practical they really are.

Moreover, you are given the possibility to create a custom sticker map with all key combinations visible on the layout which you can print out on a sheet of paper. When you are satisfied with the result, you can save it as a layout that can easily be activated through your operating system options.

Taking everything into consideration, we can say that KbdEdit is a powerful tool with which you can map out keys to make work with uncommon characters more comfortable. The number of possible combinations is large enough to satisfy nearly any specialized work field.
