The dead-key mappings used in the keyboard definitions available on diskette from Treasury Board Secretariat use a considerably more complex set of macros to re-map the keyboard. They can also provide error checking by editing them so that only accent-letter combinations that are valid in French are allowed, as opposed to other combinations that are used in other languages. A complete explanation of them requires some understanding of computer programming or WordPerfect's advanced macro language and is beyond the scope of this guideline.

  • Internet et télématique
CONT

La table de correspondance des touches mortes utilisée sur la disquette offerte par le Secrétariat du Conseil du Trésor pour définir les claviers fait appel à un ensemble de macro-commandes beaucoup plus complexes. Ces dernières, lorsqu'on les rédige de manière à ce que seules les combinaisons de lettres accentuées valables en français soient permises à l'encontre d'autres combinaisons qui peuvent être utilisées dans d'autres langues, permettent même d'effectuer le contrôle des erreurs. Leur explication détaillée suppose une certaine connaissance de la programmation machine ou du langage de macro-commandes évolué de WordPerfect et dépasse l'objet de cette ligne directrice.
