Did you ever want to use some character which is not available at the keyboard, e.g. Ç ü ® ± ?
You could use character table, switch the keyboard layout, or enter the numeric value of the character.
These methods are invonvenient. Searching a character in the table is lengthly process, or you need to know the exact
number of the character. If you switch keyboard layout, you know nothing which letter is on which key.
That's the moment when KbdKaz 500 comes into play. The idea of this keyboard layout is using standard keyboard
with US layout labels. Besides common characters drawed on the keys, you can access additional 700 letters and symbols.
The important fact is you don't need to remember where is the character you want to obtain. All you need is to look
at the keyboard, recall a few simple rules, and you momentarily know which keys to press.
You can use KbdKaz 500 in your everyday work, it coexist with standard way of entering characters.
KbdKaz 500 is NOT an additional program, keyboard filter, etc. It is a set of character tables encapsulated in .dll
file JUST THE SAME as system keyboard layouts in Windows. Therefore KbdKaz 500 is SAFE method of changing keyboard layout. The installer will install appropriate
.dll file according to your Windows version. The dll file name contains the layout symbol e.g.
kbdUSkaz.dll, kbdDEkaz.dll and so on.
If you already use US keyboard layout, just install KbdKaz 500 and set it as the default layout.
Use your keyboard as usual, and whenever you want extra characters or symbols, use advanced features
of KbdKaz 500. How is it possible? Watch the animation below or read the manual.
