Warning: Warning: Changing Second Life's initialization files can result in unexpected behavior or loss of functionality in Second Life. Proceed at your own risk; Linden Lab will not support issues that arise as a result of altered program files. It is always wise to save a backup copy of any program file before making edits.

If you are using a non-QWERTY keyboard setup, some of Second Life's controls may seem confusing or inconvenient. In these extreme cases, you may rebind Second Life's keyboard controls by editing the keys.ini file. For more information, see "Keyboard Mapping" on the Second Life Wiki.
