Launcher key control error (.app / mac)

[keybounce]

On the mac, the key that has backtick and tilde gets assigned "circumflex" when used in the mojang launcher in 1.7.10.

The same key gets assigned "Grave" when used in the Ftb Launcher.app program.

I discovered this by having this be the "VeinMiner" activation key, and using the same pack in both launchers.

From what I can tell, FTB's launcher is the correct one here. It could be that FTB is largely maintained in America (I think), while the Mojang launcher is made in Sweden (perhaps Sweden has a different keyboard, with a circumflex in place of the grave accent?).

I'm just trying to understand how the same program sees different keycodes from the same key, only based on which parent program calls java.

I suspect FTB launcher uses different lwjgl or jinput version than vanilla. Any idea which library does extra keyboard mapping?

 

[keybounce]

No idea.

How would I tell which version is used by mojang vs ftb?

FTB Launcher uses version 2.9.2-nightly-20140822 LWJGL and vanilla 2.9.1. jinput library has same version.
