As you can see it's a keyboard layout.
I depicted my own keyboard which is why you will see an � , � and � - Danish characters since mine 
use a danish layout.
Some chars were also choosen because they were easier to draw in such a small space instead of the 
default char.
But all chars are available on the key they are depicted on .. only some might require a SHIFT or 
ALT combination to show.

Win keys on my keyboard is a windows logo but it can't be depicted on 1 line and 4 chars (if you can 
do it you're an ascii-god)
I had to abbreviate some other charaters too.

Also to maintain a proper look not all chars have their exact width depicted though I have managed 
quite well overall. The only exception is the left SHIFT button which should be as wide as the CTRL 
button beneath it .. but to do that I would have to shift the entire row and that would make the 
rest of the keys in that row seem out of place.

Feel free to make diddles and your localized versions.
