For Japanese (JIS) keyboard users (some Key codes have been shortened)
Posted: 26 Dec 2017, 21:25
I'm posting this for the sake of informing/warning JIS keyboard users for recent changes of keycodes, that is very critical to the use of AutoHotkey.
Because I was like "what? why my script not working? " and then after reading those change logs, I became "AHA!"
Yes, I should have posted this somewhere else or other forums, but since not many people use AutoHotkey in Japan and it's the only place that people can reach so please forgive me. Well, the Japanese wiki owners locked normal users away since 2013! so...
After the build 1.1.27.00 (latest for now), the keycode for JIS keyboards (and I suppose others ) have been altered (shortened).
Now, don't have to remember all the letters that come after vk. Just vk codes are required.
Hence,
Oh, and if you are interested in keyboard overseas, JIS keyboards have extra 4 keys! lol
With AutoHotkey, I am very happy using them, since those keys are in good position, but not really useful in vanila Windows.
For Japanese speakers I repeat myself in Japanese a bit.

Hence,
Code: Select all
Muhenkan / 無変換 -> {vk1D}
Henkan / 変換 -> {vk1C}
Kana / かな -> {vkF2}
IME ON/OF -> {vkF3}, {vkF4}
