]]> Comment on US International Keyboard Layout w/o Dead Keys for Microsoft Windows by Hugh http://blog.ginkel.com/2010/05/us-international-keyboard-layout-wo-dead-keys-for-microsoft-windows/comment-page-1/#comment-8926 Hugh Sat, 17 Sep 2011 13:59:41 +0000 http://blog.ginkel.com/?p=645#comment-8926 Great post, and great tip. I'd already created my own version of the US International keyboard layout in MSKLC that shifts the '/`/\/^/~ dead keys onto AltGr+ combinations before I found this, but it's good to see that I wasn't alone in finding it rather lame that the only way to get access to international characters on Windows was to sacrifice the normal operation of five crucial punctuation keys, making writing anything involving lots of punctuation, especially code such as HTML, CSS, PHP, etc., damn near impossible. Moving the accent triggers to AltGr combinations doesn't make it any more difficult to use accented characters but does allow for completely normal operation of the standard US layout key set for the majority of usage, with all non-standard characters accessible through one single modifier key. I hope that someone at Microsoft is reading this and taking note. Great post, and great tip.

Unfortunately, it is only available via WiFi, but not via the WAN interface (on the Internet), which originally prompted me to cross-compile Asterisk.
