I've added a Dvorak keyboard setup to my Mac (running System 7.0), and
as other people who only know QWERTY use my Mac too, I'd like to be
able to switch back and forth between QWERTY and Dvorak more quickly
than having to pull out the Keyboard control panel all the time.

Much to my surprise, I saw mention of a "Keyboard" menu in _Inside
Macintosh VI_, as well as in a System 7 introduction book.  This would
do the trick nicely!

But how do I make it appear?  What do I need to add to or modify in my
system in order to coax the Keyboard menu to appear between my Help
menu and my Application menu?

I'm handy with ResEdit; technical descriptions and directions are
welcome.  I'll summarize here if I get a good answer through email,
but feel free to either email me or post here.

advThanks!
