It had a utility to modify your keyboard with a program. You had to edit a ASCII-File with the key descriptions, call that program (I think setkeyb or some- thing like that) with the name of the ASCII-File and it worked. It was not a program of MWC itself but was in the kit you bought from Victor Computers. At that time Coherent cost, today's exchange rate, $ 1000. I really wonder why they still have not such a utility in their newest version.
