Minecraft Linux Key Fix

by Bougy

Minecraft Linux Key Fix corrects how Minecraft 1.7.10 on Linux reads keys from non-American keyboard layouts, such as a French keyboard.

What it does

Minecraft 1.7.10 on Linux does not recognize some non-ASCII keys, which makes the hotbar hard to use on layouts like French. The mod is a Forge fix that uses a mixin to correct this bug in the 1.7.10 version line, and it needs UniMixins to work. It runs on the client alone, and the code is released under the MIT License as open source.

Key features

  1. Non-ASCII key input

    Keys that Minecraft 1.7.10 on Linux ignores under non-American layouts are read correctly.

  2. Usable hotbar

    With the fix, number keys and hotbar selection respond on keyboards that the bug previously affected.

  3. Mixin-based correction

    The fix applies through a mixin, so the vanilla game files are not replaced.
