RE: French keyboard : XWin -query

I suppose it would be easier if we all started speaking english at home too?

Not that I persist, but I quite like my own language, so I'll wait for a UN
resolution banning the use of other languages.

The easiest solution is to purchase English Keyboards, which is what
the current Cygwin/XFree maintainer uses.  However, if you persist on
using the nonstandard keyboard, my suggestion would be to search the
mailinglist archives -- the URL is located at the bottom of this
