Disclaim:
   This program is freeware, so you can copy and use it free. If you find
   it useful, a litle reward as disks, magazines, info of any kind or some
   little money would be very appriciated and it would encourage us in our
   next work.

Description:
   This program was developed mainly for people, who use also other than
   only english language with their computer. It makes it possible to use
   two keymaps in the same time and very comfortably change them whenever
   you need to. It changes the keymaps not the fonts !

Start:
   This program is startable from both Workbench or CLI.
   From CLI:
               Simply write HotMaps name_of_keymap_1 <name_of_keymap2>
   From WB:
               Add to Tool Types: KEYMAP1=name_of_keymap_1
                                 <KEYMAP2=name_of_keymap_2>
                                 <WINDOW=...> if you want to see the banner

   Keymaps are looked for in paths: DEVS:keymaps and KEYMAPS:

   The best way of use is to install HotMaps in Startup-Sequence, it takes
   only about 17K of memory.

Use:
   To use keymap 1 press right and left shift keys in given order
   To use keymap 2 change the order of keys

Remove:
   To remove HotMaps press keys Shift+Ctrl+Q

Technical description:
   Program should work with every type of KickStart. Developed and tested
   on Amiga 500 with KS1.3 and 2.0 and Amiga 1200. It changes the default
   keymap and keymaps of all CLI or SHELL windows.

Bugs:
   There are some utilities for example NotePad that use other keymaps than
   that which are influenced by HotMaps.
