The SEGA keyboard is used in the SC-3000 and SF-7000
computers. It comes without numeric keypad, but
it is very similar to a standard PC keyboard (with
exception of the way the Shift key is working).
The typewrite keys are almost the same.
As some SEGA keys don't exist on a PC keyboard,
the emulator makes also some adjustements to
support the complete SEGA keyboard :
- the PC key before the "1" key is used
for emulate the extrem right SEGA key on the
third row
- the extrem right PC key on the third row is
used to emulate the extrem right SEGA key on the
first row
Specific Sega keys are mapped to the following PC
keyboard keys :
