European Latin Keyboard Help

Many European and other languages use the Latin alphabet with accent marks and letters not normally used in English. The European Latin keyboard enables you to type in all Latin-script European languages, and most Latin-script languages from the rest of the world. It uses simple sequences of symbol + character to type letters and other characters not available on the standard keyboard. This keyboard may be used with QWERTY, AZERTY or any other Latin-alphabet hardware keyboard.
