This is a keyboard layout for international users who are accustomed to using Microsoft Windows with US keyboards.
It duplicates exactly the behavior of Window's "U.S. - International" keyboard layout to produce accented characters, while maintaining the Mac's option-key method wherever possible.
Now here's a Mac version of the "U.S. - International" keyboard. It duplicates as closely as possible the Windows key sequences, while keeping most of the option-key sequences intact.
The bad news is that this keyboard layout will work only for "usual" applications. Some games don't check the keyboard layout correctly, and Unix-ported applications running under X11 won't see it either.
