Well, on french keyboards, we have to hold SHIFT to get the digits, so SHIFT+1
is already 1. The companion of '1' is '&' and can be obtained without holding
SHIFT.

Combinaisons of characters are not the same from keyboards to keyboards so 
you can't assume that '!' is SHIFT+1 everywhere.

This to say that I have difficulties to start all engines with the keyboard, and
I don't speak about flaps that is the third glyph that requires Alt-Gr too.
