Yes, I have looked at the code and infact used the Microsoft Keyboard Keyboard Layout without any success. One thing I observed is that since the character are not drawn with the accent assigned where they should be, at low font size they are disaster. Using Fontlab to design the fonts and assigned codes the way they appear on the link only generate two characters in the font table.
I thing it will be better if they are drawn out which I can do and appropriate code assigned by UNICODE.
