Thanks a lot for letting me choose my keyboard layout! I'm using azerty and using qwerty-based commands is getting really old...

  You're welcome! As French, we're also often frustrated at qwerty being the only option in most demos/games.

    What I would really prefer is to be able to set your own keys, probably with some defaults for common layouts. That way you serve any layout and any key usage habits.

    Why aren't you frustrated at the continued existence of azerty? I lived for a few years in France and I always had to ask for a US keyboard or my brain would just get too confused keeping azerty and qwerty separate. Now I'm back in Italy and I still prefer the US layout for the convenient position of brackets and braces, but at least the 26 letters are in the same place as the US keyboard. Slight variations of qwerty are IMHO much worse than completely different standards like imperial vs. metric units because they are too close to keep separate in my brain.

      azerty is a cultural thing. You learn to use them as a kid, and so most french are used to them. How can someone feels frustrated by something that feels completely natural? Pro tip: alt+shift switchs the layout between azerty and qwerty

    I would appreciate a Colemak option (I saw someone else in this discussion also requesting it)!
