    Default Android keyboard

    I've installed ADOM on my android phone which should greatly reduce the risk of boredom on train rides.

    I'm currently running the r60 DOS-version on an emulator and switched the keyboard from Samsung to Perfect Keyboard Free, because the latter features a numpad.

    So far it works quite well, but there are a few issues:

    1. There's no Ctrl-Key, so some features are either inaccessible (such as Mindcraft) or tedious (such as selling stuff).
    2. There are no F-keys, so changing tactics via Shift-T is very tedious. Especially for me, since in certain fights I usually switch between Coward (First Aid) and Very Aggressive every turn.
    3. Some keys that need to be pressed rather often (such as <>) are awkward to use (i.e. you have to switch to the second page of the keyboard).

    So, i was wondering if maybe anyone has found a good solution already?

    - The best thing IMO would be a programmable keyboard app where you can completely choose the keys displayed on your screen. Please tell me such a thing exists already

    - The next best thing would be a keyboard app with numpad, Ctrl-Key and F-keys.

    - Or one could change the keybindings inside ADOM I guess (never done that) and maybe use all those letter keys, e.g. (c)oward, (b)erserk, etc

    adom keys are in adom.kbd, iirc. These are fairly easy to edit.

    you can try hacker's keyboard, I gues . not sure about F keys --- https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...ion.pckeyboard
    So far rolled 15 casters with RoDS and shamelessly killed them within 200 turns. For eternium glory!
    (after 15 I stopped counting...)
