Hi,
I have a french Apple 2c, with a french keyboard and a toggle button
that allows to switch the keyboard layout from french to US. The button
has two effects. It switches characters codes for standard ASCII
characters (ie, 'a' becomes 'q' and vice-versa), but for "extended"
characters, the code is not changed, only the display is.
For example, if I hit 'é' while in french mode, it's going to display as
'é'. If I toggle the keyboard to US when an 'é' is displayed on-screen,
the display of this character changes and becomes an '{'. (this is
quite funny, but a bit impractical).
I'd like to programmaticaly know which mode the keyboard is in, but I
can't find anything related in PEEKs and POKEs or anything. Does anyone
know if this is possible ?
Thanks!
