APPENDIX E

International Keyboard Layouts

This section contains illustrations of all the keyboard layouts available in Windows 2000 and earlier versions of Windows. Each layout is shown in several available states in addition to the normal state, when the other state provides a different mapping of keys: • With the Shift key depressed • With the Caps Lock key depressed • With the ALTGR key depressed • With combinations of the above keys depressed If you are using Windows 2000, all these keyboard layouts are available from the Regional Options applet in the Control Panel. For some locales, you must make sure that language support has been enabled on the General tab (see Figure E.1). Then, after a reboot, you can choose the Input Locales tab and add input locales as needed (see Figure E.2). For some locales, there are several possible keyboard layouts; all the ones that exist in Windows 2000 are included here.

A Special Thank You Microsoft has graciously given me permission to include the illustrations of the keyboard layouts here, as well as to include the dynamic version of these layouts on the CD. A special note of thanks also goes to KD Chang (who created the layouts) and Cathy Wissink/John McConnell (who currently manage the keyboard layouts of all Microsoft products). 29 319772 APP.

For a few of the keyboard layouts, there are some special characters that alter state in the same way that the Shift and other keys do. Those special characters are discussed at the same time as the key- board layout is shown. An example of such a keyboard is Japanese.
