Using this Keyboard

Quickstart

The EuroLatin keyboard is designed to be simple to use. Most letters, numbers, and symbols can be typed with the sequence symbol + character. For example:

• To get ô, type ^o.
• To get ², type \2.
• To get ¢, type $c.

A few letters, numbers, and symbols are typed with other simple sequences. For example:

• To get æ, type a\e.
• To get «, type <<.
• To get ⅓, type 1//3.

The EuroLatin keyboard may be used with QWERTY, QWERTZ, AZERTY, Dvorak, or any other Latin-alphabet enabled hardware keyboard.
