How to Program Any Key to Any Symbol

"

Thank you for opening this thread.
My name is Lucas, I really prefer to be just known as Luc. They mean the same thing; light in Latin.
I have been apart of isometry programming since the summer of second grade. I'm now 24 years old.
I am diagnosed as a schizophrenic. Not any other delimiter, just schizophrenic. That means my reality and my imagination are the same because my 5 senses don't work. I have to imagine what is real for it to even exist for me.

This will really carry on, I'm so deep there seems to be no end to the continuation.

Someone has done it, it must be possible how else do I type this.

Option 1) You hit the key where the letter Y is now, but you want it to generate a triangle or a different letter.

"

Option 2) You want to be able to print labels with different symbols that you can put on the keys, but have them still generate the original character. You type the triangle symbol but it generates the letter Y.

"

3)You want both. You want to replace the symbols with new printed ones and then have the system generate those. If you typed the key that used to be the letter Y, it might now look like a triangle on the keyboard, and it would generate a triangle.

Are you asking for a way to change what the system generates when you type on a certain key, change what is printed on the keyboard or both?

Examples

Option 1) You hit the key where the letter Y is now, but you want it to generate a triangle or a different letter.

Option 2) You want to be able to print labels with different symbols that you can put on the keys, but have them still generate the original character. You type the triangle symbol but it generates the letter Y.

Option 3)You want both. You want to replace the symbols with new printed ones and then have the system generate those. If you typed the key that used to be the letter Y, it might now look like a triangle on the keyboard, and it would generate a triangle.


While there might be options to remap the keyboard completely, a problem might arise when you are trying to use it in a normal fashion, such as on a website, typing in an address.

It is possible as evidenced by older Dvorak keyboard remappings (which weren't directly supported by Windows as they are now - https://www.maketecheasier.com/remapping-keyboards-dvorak-colemak-windows/

If you are looking for something that will allow you to type up documents and have different word/symbols than a customized font is probably the best option. I've never ventured into anything like that before. but if find a font forum and ask there, maybe they will have some suggestions.

Good Luck!
