Aha!...
Apparently, not only the German. I can now see why sometimes my own keyboard
starts writing some "peculiar" characters. I knew there had to be a rational

Is there a different convention for each country? I understand that there
used to be a Portuguese Standard keyboard for typwriters, but it has long
been forgotten. Do keyboards work like that for computers either?
