FWIW, my own Esc key is broken (the electronics are OK but the key
itself has come unstuck then got lost). In programs other than Vim I
actuate it, when needed, with the tail end of a teaspoon.
Alternatively, keyboards often are sold at garage sales for three bucks
apiece, and a lot of them have the layout and feel you like. I'm pretty
sure that for this entire century I've been using used keyboards on my
daily driver computer, either old Compaqs, or occasionally, old IBM
clickety-clacks.
Never seen a garage sale hereabouts, not to mention a keyboard with a Belgian
AZERTY layout ( http://users.skynet.be/antoine.mechelynck/other/keybbe.htm )
offered in one. Are you sure? I use the Esc key (in programs other than Vim)
seldom enough that I don't feel the need for it, but if I did I would either
buy a new keyboard or go to a second-hand shop.
Late to the party here but am I the only one who uses CTRL - [ as an escape
"key" 99% of the time? I went weeks with a broken esc key, only changed it when
it made pair programming suck.
You're probably not the only one but using Ctrl+[ on my AZERTY keyboard
means AltGr+Ctrl+(the key right of P) and that's a PITA.
