About this mod
This Dual Wild Hotkey fix enables a configurable hotkey you can use to swap a weapon from your right to left hand. In this way you can easily equip any combination of weapons for dual wielding, or even just have specific hotkeys for left and right-hand equips.

What Is It?
------------
Skyrim currently does not have a way to hotkey an item to be equipped into the left hand. Dual Wield Hotkey Fix/Weapon Swap alleviates this frustration by allowing you to press your left-hand weapon hotkey (equips to right hand), press the (configurable) weapon swap key, then press your right-hand weapon hotkey to equip a weapon into your off-hand via hotkey.
Dual Wield Hotkey Fix/Weapon Swap has a few INI settings you should know about. First is the key that Weapon Swap will be activated by. There is a list of key-codes below the other settings. Next, there are three settings related to messages that Weapon Swap will print. The first is print_start_message, and is the message that Weapon Swap will print when it's loaded. Next is print_error_messages, and controls whether or not error messages will be printed.
Requirements
----------------------
Script Dragon by Alexander Blade - http://forums.bethsoft.com/topic/1341854-rel-script-dragon-topic-5/
Installation
-----------------
After installing the files from Script Dragon, copy weaponswap.asi and weaponswap.ini to SkyrimInstall\asi or SkyrimInstall\Data\asi where SkyrimInstall is your main Skyrim install directory (should have TESV.exe).
Usage
------------
With a weapon in either hand, press Home (or your preferred configured key, set in weaponswap.ini) to swap it to the other hand. Works with two weapons equipped as well.
