Hello,

And there we go with the example I was referring to in my previous email:
the same language requiring two keyboard layouts (possibly two codepages
too).
Well, I seem to understand that your problem is with the installer: it
should have given you the option to choose Canada/French to use a
non-French/France layout.

If I took it wrong, and you wanted a "hot-switch" of keyboard layouts from
FR/whatever to US/no-driver, with FD-KEYB you can switch it off/on with
Ctrl+Alt+F1.

BTW, this mail sounds to me a bit more of a freedos-user email rather than
a freedos-devel email, so I am adding the other list too :)

Aitor
