I agree

I upgraded my UK ASUS Prime to Jelly Bean and now my keyboard dock thinks it is 
USA.

All other android apps work fine but in terminalide when I type "£" (shift 3) 
I get "#" the "pipe" and "at" symbols are swapped etc. I have to remember my 
Wsye50 days to type correctly.

Worked fine under Ice Cream - not sure if it Jelly Bean or ASUS causing the 
fault

Same issue here with tf700 running cyanogenmod 10 jb using french dock 
keyboard. 

What a pitty... The physical keyboard works great everywhere, including android 
terminal emulator except for terminal IDE AND connect bot. Maybe you could look 
at android terminal emulator sources... 

Hope you fix it as this is blocking me from using it on my TF700.... :-(

I have same issues with a Nexus7 v.4.2.1 with a french bluetooth keyboard 
(Wedge Mobile Keyboard from Microsoft).
"letter are in azerty mode and specials chars and numerics are in qwerty mode".

I have the same type of issue with my Swedish hardware keyboard om my 
Transformer TF101 running JellyBean (Team EOS ROM). All other apps work fine, 
only Terminal IDE that has this keyboard mapping problem. Worked perfectly 
before when I was still on ICS.

Is there somewhere we can configure this or is it a bug?
Can unfortunately not use Terminal IDE because of this.
Hope this will be fixed since I loved using Terminl IDE, especially for using 
git and VIM.

I'm having problems as well with my Toshiba AC100, an Android laptop with 
physical keyboard (Italian layout in my case). Available options allow for 
remapping very specific keys like CTRL and ESC, but regular keys like ':' or 
'@' (much needed when working with terminals) are still misplaced in non-US 
layouts.
Is there any more generic way of remapping keys so that the application can be 
adapted to work with any keyboard layout?

Unfortunately nothing changed after upgrading Terminal IDE to 2.0
Characters are still misplaced in non-US keyboards

In fact, there shoud be an option to just disable all the tricks 
TerminalIDE puts up. Having my weird keyboard layout (bépo) to work on my 
android was a pain. Now my external keyboard works thanks to an app called 
external keyboard helper. Because TIDE want you to select his keyboard and 
override everything, it doesn't work.

As they say in Python, we're all consenting adults. Let us do our own kludges.

Same problem on my asus TF700T, JB 4.2.1, term IDE 2.02.
This issue has been reported 5 months ago. Looks like we won't get a fix 
anytime soon.

Same problem here.
I don't know if it can help but I had the same issue in emacs.
Terminal Emulator works fine with symbols on the upper row of the keyboard but 
does not displays letters with accents.

I have the same probvlem. My german hard-keyboard has messed up key mappings.

HardKeyboard(input)    Terminal IDE(output)
;                      <
:                      >
ö                      ;
Ö                      :
...and so on...

It's pretty hard to use vim and do some coding this way. Everything, apart from 
<strg> <alt> <esc> and generic ascii-7bit is pretty much misplaced on my 
hard-keyboard. That's a pitty! Some layout mapping file for this would be great.

This issue was first reported in Oct. 2012. Will this ever be fixed?

Not a fix, but a work-around:
-install External Keyboard Helper
-set keyboard layout to what you have
-select it 

Works for me for Terminal IDE and emacs running on it.

I tried the workaround with demo version, and special chars like é and è does 
not appear on screen, even those like " and ' are working.
