- Cub'X-Window works fine with ADB keyboards, with no patch required. Reason
- for this is Cub'X-Window keyboard mapping has been developed in order to
- follow NeXT keyboard mapping. It strictly adapts to NeXT keyboard
- preferences, permitting to use all NeXT International keyboards, and the
- ADB.
- Cub'X-Window keyboard accepts accents and other specific letters, and also
- adapts to X requirements, such as different treatment of right and left
- Shift key.
