Introducing: OptionPageUp INIT

[Crutch]

Here’s a little INIT I wrote this weekend that does one simple thing: It turns a keypress of Option + Up Arrow (or Down Arrow) into Page Up (or Page Down). Just drag it into the System Folder under Systems 6/7 (Extensions folder under System 7+) and restart. It should work fine with earlier/later versions, too.

I wrote it to give myself Page Up/Down keys when programming using Mini vMac on my iPad with a keyboard folio (no page up/down keys), but it should work great with real vintage keyboards that lack Page Up/Down keys, too, like the Mac Plus and Mac II keyboards. I hope others might find it useful!

For information, yes, you can use ADB keyboards on some Android phones, but the modifier keys are all messed up sadly.

Someone actually made an ADB to USB-C converter?

To use my Model M on my android the chain is SDL -> PS2 -> USB-A ->USB-C (via USB OTG)
