Using an Apple Magic keyboard

You can try these mappings when using an Apple Magic Keyboard (with numpad):
This is the registry data:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout]
"Scancode Map"=hex:00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,0c,00,00,00,37,e0,64,00,46,00,65,00,\
20,e0,67,00,6a,e0,68,00,2e,e0,69,00,30,e0,6a,00,45,00,45,e0,5b,e0,38,00,38,\
00,5b,e0,5c,e0,38,e0,38,e0,5c,e0,00,00,00,00
Save the above in a .reg
file (e.g. "apple_keyboard.reg" for example), double-click the file, allow it to be imported. Log off and back on (you may need to reboot) and you're set!
This maps:
- F13 -> PrtScr
- F14 -> Scroll Lock
- F15 -> Sorry, can't map to break
- F16 -> (Un)Mute
- F17 -> Web: Back
- F18 -> Volume Down
- F19 -> Volume Up
- Clear -> NumLock
- Left Option -> Left Windows
- Left Command -> Left Alt
- Right Option -> Right Windows
- Right Command -> Right Alt
Unfortunately the ⏏ key (between F12 and F13) and the fn button cannot be mapped (the latter would be mapped to insert).
Tip: combine the above settings with Tray Status Pro to show the numlock and caps-lock states (can also do scroll-lock).
The menu key is missing on the Apple Magic Keyboard so it's not mapped in the above (maybe possible to use F17 for; but haven't figured out the codes (yet)). The rest works as expected.
