There are two "standard" keyboard layouts for Switzerland, a French one (code SF) and a German one (code SG or SD). They are both QWERTZ, but some of the other punctuation characters are in different places. That is often the case with different keyboard layouts -- many times the Latin alphabetic characters are the same (usually QWERTY, QWERTZ, or AZERTY) but the rest of the keyboard can be VERY different. People can also design their own custom keyboard layouts if they want, but that can create all sorts of compatibility problems. He'll also need to worry about the Code Page, especially if he ever needs to use the Euro symbol. He may also need to worry about the Country settings for sorting and punctuation. And if he ever wants to print from DOS, there's a huge can of worms related to Printer Code Pages (which FreeDOS really hasn't addressed at all). In addition, just because his e-mail address is from Switzerland doesn't necessarily mean that he uses either of the Swiss keyboard layouts. There are also several "International" keyboard layouts that might work well for Switzerland. Even having a Swiss email address doesn't necessarily mean that he actually lives in Switzerland (he probably does, but that's not guaranteed). _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
