This is not really a request to make an application portable, but a request for an entire application.
I use a pretty rare keymap (Swedish Dvorak(Not included in windows by default)), and would like the ability to change to this keymap wherever I go.
Previously I have tried some application named noadmin svorak, but that changed to svorak, which is not the keymap im using, I've also tried putting together a script with autohotkey, I got pretty far but not all the way, and also it's dependant on the keymap the computer allready uses.
What I hope for is an application that can read any .dll keymap file and use that keymap.

I'm quite sure that a keymap is defined within the HKEY_LOCALMACHINE hive of the registry which requires admin rights to alter. As you won't normally be encountering machines set up in that fashion, I believe you're out of luck.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
I'm sure you're right, but I don't need to change the actual keymap(I think). I just need a program that acts interprets keystrokes and sends the correct signals. Autohotkey does this, but it needs a script that I am unable to write correctly after days of trying. Maby it's dependant on the keymap already running on the machine, in which case it's not that good.
hope someone will have good news about this
You would have to remap EVERY SINGLE KEY, and all the keys with [shift] pressed

It's not that many, no need to change special keys, so it's the alphabet +some special keys, I've done it all except two special keys. But the script I made sends some weird stuff, so sometimes the ascii numeric value shows up instead of the sign, and there is keys on the keyboard i can't find a way to bind.
be sure to have "Return" at the end of the block of code for each hotkey. That has been an issue for me in the past.
