I wonder if you even need a separate program to do that. Many years ago
I wrote a jfw script that entered a couple of keys when one was pressed.
I wonder if you couldn't write a jfw script that entered shift-f10
when print screen was pressed? This would be a bit of a cludge, but it
may be the best alternative. If anyone has ever written a jfw script to
enter keystrokes, I'd like to have a copy, I've long since forgot how I
did it.

Hello gang.
Windows 7 Home Premium and Lenovo Think Pad T430 laptop's
Note: Pl avoid suggesting kbd mappers like the ones I mention below as they
apparently don't claim to do what I am asking.
My new Lenovo T430 at home has the following keys you move right from the space
bar: alt, print screen, ctrl. Every laptop I've used before my ThinkPad T430 had
the keys to the right of the spacebar going-> alt, applications, ctrol. The
application key there brings context menus. My T430 does not have the application
key anywhere on the kbd and instead has the print screen key there. Being blind
I'm totally dependent upon the kbd and can't use the mouse with my visual aid
software.
I need a way to reassign the print screen key to work as the typical
applications key despite the fact that none of the keys on the kbd is an
applications key. I have found that shift F10 works like the application key
but I would like the print screen key described above to work as the
applications key.
Couple kbd mapping software I found only suggest they allow me to switch key
functions which suggests to me that they can only assign the function of
another pre-existing key on the kbd to my key of interest. Note I say above
that my kbd does not have any key at all that is the applications key, just the
shift F10 command that does it.
Would hugely appreciate info on how I can turn this print screen key to work
just like an applications key to bring up context menus.
Thanks much!
