## MNH48 Jawi (QWERTY) - Windows | ||
|
||
The directory contains the keyboard layout source file in `klc` format, | ||
that is used in Microsoft Keyboard Layout Creator (MSKLC), as well as | ||
the resulting compiled installation files and libraries, minus the | ||
bootstrapper. Because the bootstrapper seemed to not be generated by | ||
MSKLC but rather just copied over, it is technically copyrighted by | ||
Microsoft and I cannot distribute it. The other files are actually | ||
compiled and I have the copyrights on them, so I can distribute them. | ||
|
||
You can also generate the files on your side from the source `klc`. | ||
Install MSKLC from Microsoft's website, load the `klc` file, then click | ||
`Project` and select `Build DLL and Setup Package`. | ||
|
||
**For users who just want to install keyboard layout and not do anything | ||
else, download the [latest release archive](https://github.com/jawi-mnh48/jawi-keyboard/releases/latest/download/mnh48-jawi-qwerty-windows.zip) and then open it, then | ||
double click on `MNHjawi_amd64.msi` to install and you're done.** | ||
|
||
If you cannot run `MNHjawi_amd64.msi`, for example, it gives you the | ||
error: `Error message: The version of this file is not compatible with | ||
the version of Windows you're running.`, then please run `MNHjawi_i386.msi` | ||
instead because it means that your Windows or your processor doesn't | ||
support amd64 instruction set. In rare cases such as on certain old | ||
computers with Windows XP, even `MNHjawi_i386.msi` might not work and | ||
you need `MNHjawi_ia64.msi` instead in those cases. | ||
|
||
The files are built on Windows 10 and has been tested to be functioning | ||
properly under Windows 10. The version of MSKLC used is 1.4.6000.2 | ||
released on 2nd October 2020. The Unicode data bundled was Unicode 5.0 | ||
but I've manually downloaded Unicode 13.0 data to use with MSKLC before | ||
compiling, so the keyboard layout I generate has support for Unicode 13.0. | ||

### MNH48 Jawi (QWERTY) - Windows | ||
|
||
I would actually want to release this as full featured open source, but | ||
there might had been some violation with Microsoft's licensing terms. | ||
If I read correctly, what it don't allow is the bundling of the keyboard | ||
layout in paid software or selling the layout itself. You can still use | ||
my files to install and modify as long as you abide with that terms. | ||
Those terms were set by Microsoft, not me. |
