Questions of keyboard layouts and languages #25

I haven't had a chance to use the new version yet, so excuse if this is a non issue:

When translations are added, will the keyboard layout be configurable independently of the language? The reason mainly I ask is because French Canadian keyboards are QWERTY layout. A very select few would use AZERTY. If adlplug is to get that info from the OS then, I suppose this solves itself?

Thanks!

It's not dependent on the language which is configured. It's just too difficult to get the keyboard variant of the OS, and deduce a key map out of it.

Instead, I'm letting the user make a choice and this will be kept in the local configuration. Now it's just two available predefinitions, but on request I can add more if someone needs.
