C64DX System Specification UPDATEF.BOWEN 5/1/91

2.1.2 German/Austrian Keyboard Layout

Notes:

  1. The operation of national keyboards is identical to C128 implementation. The ASCII/DIN key replaces the CAPS LOCK key, and can be toggled anytime to switch keyboard modes and automatically change the display.
  2. The national keyboard contains key legends for both national and ASCII modes. The national legends appear on the right top/bottom of the keys.
  3. The German keyboard has three (3) "deadkeys." They are accent d'aigue, accent grave, and accent circonflex. Pressing the "deadkey" followed by a valid vowel or accent characted will 'build' the desired character:
                accent d'aigue:         é
                accent grave:           à, è, ù
                accent circonflex:      â, ê, î, ô, û
    
  4. National character ROM graphic characters differ from the C64 and ASCII (English) graphic character sets.
