Description of LatinKey program from Softdepia.com:
LatinKey is a keyboard utility that helps users type any Latin-based languages on US keyboard in almost all Windows 95/98/NT applications by using only ten unique diacritic keys. If sometime you have to type a foreign language, you may need to install a keyboard driver for that language. The keyboard driver will re-assign your keyboard layout in order to let you type the language specific characters that are not available directly on the US keyboard. However, it also interferes with your habit: you may get now a quite strange character instead of a certain expected character after a familiar keystroke. For example, you will get "Y" character when you type "Z" key and vice versa on the French layout of your US keyboard. Therefore you must switch back and forth between English layout and the layout of your foreign language all the time.
Different keyboard drivers have different layouts, so you have to remember quite a lot of different key assignments if you are working with more than two languages at a time. As a result, your typing speed is decreased significantly, and your life is unhappy.
LatinKey is written to help you overcome this kind of inconvenience: LatinKey lets you type all Latin-based languages with only ten unique diacritic keys. Once you are familiar with these 10 keys, you can type any foreign language in the same way, same speed and as comfortable as you do in English!
LatinKey is a "Free to try" program. You can download and try it for an evaluation period.
