Table commands of the Flight Simulator X
========================================

This table for all commands of the FSX includes over 1093 internal function names, the approx. 470 function descriptions, which can be found in the settings in FSX, in German and English, as well as the standard keyboard layout.

Contents of the columns:
========================

XML names of the functions:
---------------------------
All internal XML function names of the FSX. They are entered in the "Standard.xml" keyboard and joystick assignment file and tell the FSX which function is meant.

"Command descriptions DE" and "Command descriptions EN"
-----------------------------------------------------
The descriptions that the FSX displays in Settings/Controls/Keys under "Event Category: All Events". The "DE" column contains the descriptions of the German-language FSX + AcceleratorPack. The "EN" column the English texts of the FSX Deluxe/SP2. Sorting in Excel according to this column results in a purely alphabetical sorting that does NOT correspond to that in FSX.

"S->" (1) und "S->" (2)
-----------------------
contain the macro asciicode() in each cell, which ensures that the description column is sorted to the right of it. This is necessary so that the sorting of the command description is the same as in the FS, which does not sort alphabetically, but according to the number code of the letters. In the delivery state, the table is sorted according to "S-> 2" alphabetically.

Event Category
-----------------
contains the category in which the FSX classifies the function under Settings/Controls/Keys/Event Category. Sorting the table according to this column results in the category blocks. However, the FSX does not classify all commands into the categories: The remaining ones only appear in the FSX dialog under "Category: All". The category "self" contains self-added description texts. All functions that contain "self" or nothing in this column and no description do not appear in the FSX settings dialog and cannot be assigned there. You have to enter them directly in the Standard.xml.

Keyboard Layout
---------------
should correspond to the standard assignment. The EN column is little different from the DE column because I didn't have an English keyboard layout available. The differences are in the "virtual keys" (see separate file/table).
