jeah, it's:

qwertzuiop�
asdfghjkl��$
yxcvbnm,.-

so, quite similar to german board, except that special chars are
sometimes different and that we can access french chars as �/�/�/� very
quickly (ie shift-�/�/�/4) 'cos part of switzerland is french speaking
(as is italian, as is romantsch)

now i bet my newsreader will tell me that some of those characters are
not true ascii - but i'll send it anyway ;]
