My computer came with American key tops.  I use the Canadian French key
arrangement.  I have pasted 8 keys with paper overlays marked with the
Canadian French characters that they now represent.  However that is not
sufficient to supply tilde and  umlaut which I can get with the Spanish or
German key arrangements.  I am not sure if I can get Italian, Danish or
Czech accents or the Icelandic thorn character.
