KEYB is a program that replaces the keyboard program resident in ROM
BIOS to support non U.S. English keyboards.  It permits you to enter
characters that are not part of the standard QWERTY keyboard set, such
as accented and umlauted characters.  The actual keys pressed to
generate such characters depends on the type of keyboard in use.

NOTE: The keyboard programs on versions prior to DOS 3.3 are not
compatible and should not be executed under DOS 3.3.
KEYB which is available starting with DOS 3.3 replaces KEYBxx which
was available with earlier versions.

After loading a keyboard driver, you may change from the KEYB program
to the US program by pressing CTRL-ALT-F1.  You may switch back to the
KEYB program by pressing CTRL-ALT-F2.  KEYB entered without parameters
will report the current keyboard settings and code pages in use.
