To quote Feb '83 Byte on the //e.
"A ROM on the main board maps the keyboard-switch closures into the appropriate
ASCII codes and can be changed to provide foreign or special keyboards.
(Incidentally, the American version of the ROM is only half used.  The other
half holds a Dvorak keyboard map that can be accessed with a few jumpers
and etch cuts.)"
By the way, does anyone know how get get rid of the n-key rollover bug in
the //e?  (The bug is that certain combinations of keys introduced unhit
keys.  Like "the" produces "thje".)  Would the scan of the keyboard have
to be speeded up or what?
