Apple Extended Keyboard II Works!!
I bought Apple Extended Keyboard II from e-Bay that is NEW UNUSED. I
tried to connect Apple Extended Keyboard II to my Apple IIgs. It works.
F1-F15, Ins, Del, Home, End, Page Up, and Page Down keys do not work on
AppleSoft BASIC because it is not implemented YET, BUT it can print wrong
characters in the screen. It is my goal to add Apple Extended Keyboard II
support in Apple IIgs' ROM so it will work with AppleSoft BASIC. I want to
use Ins and Del keys that I allow to insert and delete characters in 256
character buffer at $200 (Page Two) rather than using arrow keys to edit.
I tried to use Apple Extended Keyboard II on Transporter card using
MS-DOS 6.22. I can be ABLE to use F1-F15 keys on MS-DOS prompt. I can be
ABLE to use Ins and Del keys using DOSKEY.COM. It is COOL!!!
I don't need to use 5-Pin cable that comes with PC Transporter and 5-Pin
To PS/2 Adapter to use PC keyboard. I am HAPPY with Apple Extended Keyboard
II that is designed to use ADB port. I recommend that you try one like I
DID. Good News.
