h1. Keyboard mapping My philosophy philophy was to create an Atari like experience, rather than map all the USB keys to the Atari equivalents. So the keyboard is mapped to match the standard Atari keyboard layout, as far as possible. Of course there are no CONSOL keys (Help/Start/Select/Option/Reset) on a mini-itx case (unless you add some via GPIO) so this has to be handled on the keyboard. These are mapped to the F-keys. Since the Atari keyboard layout is not the same as a USB keyboard layout, some keys will say one thing and do another. I highly recommend buying stickers from here: https://www.4keyboard.com/commodore/591-2840-commodore-atari-non-transparent-keyboard-stickers.html. For an ISO keyboard: !http://www.64kib.com/autobuild/keyboard.JPG! Steve (917k) added support for ISO keyboards. It is basically the same except some of the arrow keys moved around, since there are not enough keys for the Atari style layout. h2.
