Tested and it works ok here with Windows2000/UK keyboard/UK input locales and it also works correctly with an US keyboard/US input locales/*keyboard USA. I posted a message on the allegro.cc forum about this keyboard mapping problem and they said that the problem lies with the X11 window system as it's converts the hardware code before the allegro lib sees it. The DirectInput from Windows doesn't convert anything. This means that the keyboards RISC OS supports should work without any keymap problems on Windows. For the X11 window system we need to setup some keymap system to correct the X11 hardware conversion.
