One of the bugs (features) in Windows 95/98 is that Microsoft chose not
to implement support for multiple keyboard layouts in Console applications.
Therefore, we had to do it ourselves within Kermit 95.
If you have installed multiple keyboard layouts in Windows 95/98, then
K95 when it is started will begin with the default layout. After that
point the Alt-Left Shift and Ctrl-Left Shift combinations are used to
cycle through all of the available layouts.
