International Keyboard Layouts: Appendix
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).

Figure E.1 Enabling support for a language is easily done on the General tab of the Regional Options dialog.
Figure E.2 Adding an input locale is also very easy to do in the proper tab of the Regional Options dialog.
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 keyboard layout is shown. An example of such a keyboard is Japanese.
