The way Vanilin works is that you specify plain chars or scancodes and what MIDI note they are supposed to output.
Very simple, and it only needs to be done once. (You create your custom layout file and thats that.)
Example with scancodes:
#78 = 57 (Letter N will output MIDI Note 57 (A)
#74 = 58 (Letter J will output MIDI Note 58 (A#)
Example with plain chars:
N = 57 (Same as above)
J = 58 (Same as above)
(Note: I found using scancodes is better because there might be instances where a plain char doesnt work.)
So if you make your own layout (which is what i did) you can assign any MIDI note to any key available on your keyboard, i.e. what keys you assign over how many octaves is completely up to you.
Works great except for the key-combo issue which all virtual keyboards suffer from depending on your keyboard.
