1.) Hit Macro button on toolbar

2.) Hit New button

3.) Hit the "Div" on keypad

Cmud doesn't seem to be using the key signature.

The * key doesn't work either.

Note that this means the / for the NUMBER pad doesn't work. The one for the regular keyboard does work.

The * doesn't work at ALL.

The numpad is working fine here. Make sure the EnglishKeypad package is loaded for your session.

SHIFT-8 isn't working as Arminas describes, though. How strange.

That was the first thing I checked actually. At first is was not loaded and I thought AHA! Until I loaded the two packages and there was no difference.

In the macro Name field in the settings editor, you need to follow the instructions given in the status bar of the window that tell you to press the Enter key to set the key for the macro. In other words, press Enter, then press the Div button on the key pad. Pressing Enter will give the same prompt that Ctrl-K normally gives from the command line.

The Name field was changed so that normal keys with ascii values will enter those values as text into the Name field. This allows you to enter stuff like "F1" without it taking the "F" key as the macro key. Since the Div and * keys on the keypad return ascii values (/ and * respectively), then you need to press Enter first before pressing them.

This is actually also somewhat of a bug in Windows. CMUD is calling the Windows API to check a keypress to see if it corresponds to an ascii value. And this routine doesn't seem to be checking the state of the numlock key. I might try to fix that when I get a chance.
