Key Map Parser: Track your combos, find those duplicates!
Can't remember what key combos you have used? Can't find that duplicate key combo?
The following Excel 2010 file reads your ISBoxer configuration file and parses it for all of your key combinations.
Download: ISBoxer XML KeyMap Parser v4.2.xlsm
Updated: 5-7-12
Bug and logic updates.
Clearer color coding.
What it does:
When I say "suspect" duplications that means due to ISBoxer's vast flexibility, the parser may find duplicates that don't necessarily impact your play. For example, key combos from one team don't affect another. I may have missed/ignored other otherwise safe duplications.
For simplicity's sake, if a combo is duplicated, virtualizing or not, only one combo name shows in the matrix. The matrix isn't comprehensive, it just ticks off what combo combinations have been used. However, all duplicated combos will be commented, showing all uses of that combo.
If you use Right Mods like Right Ctrl, Right Shift, etc., there is a toggle for that. Due to the extra permutations created when using Right Mods they add a significant delay to the parsing time. If you don't use them, turn them off.
Also, the dark yellow FTL warning strip reminds you that unless you're desperately searching for unused combos, you should avoid those, since they stand a high chance of being used for FTL.
If you find bugs or unexpected results, please:
