- I don't know about AWGS 1.0, but AWGS 1.1 and Teach can use the extra
- characters. In a control panel, I think General, you have to set Keyboard
- Translation. I think the options are none and normal. You want normal. Try
- pressing some keys with the option key down. Shift-option also gets you a few
- characters. You should upgrade AWGS to 1.1. Most programs should work with the
- extra characters w/o any changes.
