Ken, You¹re right. I suppose there are external keyboards for Macs that have a Right Control Key. I¹m dealing with my MacBook Pro which is a laptop. I tried the Karabiner map for right control keycode to the right option key, which doesn¹t seem to pass through to the application running in Wine correctly, yet. I will keep playing with mapping options, and try Winetrick¹s Autohotkey inside Wine and see what I can find.
However, I suspect that the key code doesn¹t pass through because the Korean IME is not in place. I haven¹t figured out how to get the Winetrick¹s msctf configured to work nor access to the ³Text Service and Language Options² dialog. I did go in with Regedit and create the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\CTF\LangBar\ ShowStatus key and set the value to 0, which I think makes it appear on the Desktop all the time, but I may have to play with the settings.
Any thoughts you have are welcome. Thanks.
James

I want to run a Korean IME in Wine on my Mac OS X. The normal keystroke to convert Hangeul to HanJa (that is, Korean alphabetic to the Chinese character equivalent) is just the Right-side Ctrl key (rctrl) which does not exist on a Mac Keyboard, it is only available on the IBM 101/102 keyboards. Do you have any experience with driving a Wine IME handler from a Mac?
For the Right-side Ctrl problem There may be a way to emulate it or hack something so that the right command functions as right control. But I am going to bring Ken Thomases into this since he is the expert there.
Well, it's not true that Mac keyboards in general lack a right-Control key. I'm using an Apple keyboard with one right now.
But, anyway, there is not currently any way to simulate one via software in the Mac driver. There's a slim chance that fn-Control would do that at the hardware or OS level. There are third-party programs that allow you to remap keys. A quick web search turns up Karabiner https://pqrs.org/osx/karabiner/, but I can't vouch for it.
