Ah, one of those guys! PLEASE, when you read the keyboard, then
TAKE NOTICE that the majority of sold Amigas does NOT use the
US layout of the keyboard but different keymaps! If you don't
consider this, then you're lost for over 1 million Amiga owners!
OK?
(BTW, I hate Uedit. Why? It doesn't know keymaps. Shame on it, trash.)
