We went to a lot of effort to add European keyboard support, especially with the help of our contact over there, Bjorn Knuttson. On the release disk we even provide a special scandinavian keymap, provided to us by Bjorn, plus CLI and ARexx macros to install/deinstall such keymaps. I don't know of the support provided by the other programs, though. -- Marco -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= "Xerox sues somebody for copying?" -- David Letterman -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
