Hmmm. This should work then. If you are using E-UAE 0.8.27 built against SDL 
and you have sdl.map_raw_keys=true set in the config file, then keycode 94   
- the less-than/greater-than key - should be mapped to Amiga scancode 48 - 
which I believe to be the less-than/greater-than key (can somebody correct 
me, if I'm wrong?).

Do you have a DE keymap selected in your Input prefs in AmigaOS?

Cheers,
Rich
