Want to remap ` and ESC keys on XT

I can't take it any more.  Every time I go to hit ESC on my XT's keyboard,
I get open-single-quote (`).  And vice versa.  This is because the keys
are in the wrong places.  This makes using vi a big pain.

Does anyone have software (a TSR, presumably) to exchange these
two keys?

Thanks,
