    Hi,
    I am running paralles beta5 on a macbook pro with a german keyboard. Already there the keyboard layout ist quite nifty to access certain keys.

    eg (nativ mac os x keyboard mappings):
    @ = alt/option-l
    ~ = alt/option-n space
    | = alt/option-7
    \ = alt/option-shift-7


    In windows as a guest I am using

    crtl-alt/option-q for the @ sign which works great.

    quite intressting is that the </> key is mapped to ^/° and the orginal ^/° key is dead in the guest.

    question is how I could manage to map the keys, since I am quite unable to get a | sign in the guest - there is a workaround in windows (keyboard-app) but inside linux/solaris it is getting painfull.

    does someone now a workaround, could there be a feature in the next beta version or do I just have to die without any change :)

    thx
    alex.
