This request adds key type entries for
Eisu_toggle
andMuhenkan
, which are used in Japanese keyboards for macOS and Windows computers.It also adds missing entry of
kKeyNameMap
forkKeyKana
.These keys are important for Japanese input methods that input Japanese characters from alphabets (e.g., "ひらがな" from "hiragana").
Henkan
andMuhenkan
are used to enable and disable input methods, respectively in Windows computers.Henkan
is already available inkey_types.h
andkey_types.cpp
Kana
andEisu_toggle
are used to enable and disable input methods, respectively in macOS computers.Kana
is already available inkey_types.h
but not available inkey_types.cpp
This request makes easier for Japanese users to share a keyboard between Windows and macOS computers while keeping the functionality of Japanese input methods.
