Issue with German keyboard layout

[eicki]

Hi,

I really like your tool, it works great on my laptop (with German keyboard layout) but it has an issue if I try to let it type a password in a vSphere machine with German keyboard layout. It then mixes up z and y. If I switch to US keyboard layout it works.
Can we make the keyboard layout to be used by your tool somehow configurable?

Hey @eicki, I haven't forgotten about this!

Basically to fix this, I need to either:

• Replace the Windows Forms SendKeys function, which just doesn't support international keyboard layouts. I was thinking about moving away from Windows Forms anyway, but this is effectively a complete rewrite.
• Create translation tables for each keyboard layout. Possible, but I'm thinking there may be edge cases with special characters normally present in passwords.

At the moment I'm leaning towards option 1... but now I just need to find time to do it.
