Since myth 1.0 (for the macintosh) only qwerty keyboards work as expected.

apparently myth is using a low level routine, and is mapping keycodes to ascii values using a hard coded table, instead of asking the system to do the conversion.

this is very annoying when chatting.

You are correct it is currently reading the raw key codes. I will give it some thought about what we want to do at this point in the game. Though since it's been in since 1.0, I'm afraid it's not going to be the highest of priorities.

Yes, it does use a hardcoded table :\ Is yours a dvorak layout?

i use a qwerty actualy, but a friend complained to me about it, he uses an azerty keyboard like 10's of millions of people.

it's a small change to make, and a very big difference to non qwerty users.
