For me to change what a single key does on my keyboard because I recently broke a a key. For example, if I wanted my 'm' key to type the letter 'n' instead would it be possible and if so, how do I make this happen?

Use a Font Designer.
Copy in a standard font and change one of the lesser used symbols to an 'M'.
The + symbol on the top row for instance, you have one of those
on your number pad.
Then load in and use that font.
I think that will work, cannot see why not.
New keyboards are £4.00 - if it's your labtop you can plug in a proper
keyboard (it's what I do).

I always equate the veracity of bragging about money with bragging about the size of other things.
Those that have money, do care about money.
Usually the bragging about the size of other things has more to do with the size of a mans vehicle. 😛 😉

I have done that in order to be able to type German umlauts and ß easily while using the American Dvorak keyboard layout (which doesn't have those letters). The obvious problem is that it only works in Word.
