French (US) Windows Keyboard Layouts

This project is a Windows port of the "French (US)" Xorg keyboard layouts created by Florent Gallaire. These are useful keyboard layouts for those who want to type in French (and other Latin languages) without sacrificing the convenience of the US keyboard layout or having to deal with the complexity of the international US keyboard layouts.

The .klc layout files (for Microsoft Keyboard Layout Creator) are faithful ports of the Xorg fr(us), fr(us-alt), and fr(us-azerty) variants found in /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/fr.

Note: The dead_grave + m/M compositions (m̀/M̀) from Xorg cannot be ported as the character can only be represented by two Unicode code points, which the .klc file format does not support.
