Hi Andreas,

Should all chars entered in upper case? For example é in French was É 
previously, what should it be?

Thanks in advance for answering all the questions, when I master the keyboard 
editor I'll write a tutorial on how create the new .xml files as it is not 
very evident. The editor helps but one has to understand it!
