# [Belgian (Non-Apple) Keyboard Layout](https://el-tramo.be/be-non-apple)
## About
This is a Mac OS X keyboard layout for 'standard' Belgian
The international keyboard layout (as opposed to the Apple-specific one)
The main difference is that signs such as @ and # are accessed using AltGr.
## Installation
- Place the `Belgian (Non-Apple).keylayout` file (
or `Belgian (IBM).keylayout` if you have an IBM-compatible keyboard)
in `/Library/Keyboard Layouts`
or `/Users//Library/Keyboard Layouts`
- Log out and back in
- From the *Input Menu* *International* preference pane, select
the layout called *Belgian (Non-Apple)*
Making it the default seems to be tricky: the keyboard sometimes seems to
jump back to the default layout. Disabling the default keyboard seems
impossible since the checkbox is greyed out and unaccessible. I still
haven't found how to solve this, so I just move the whole `Roman.bundle`
out of the System library and put it where Mac OS can't find it.
## TODO
- Make some kind of icon for it, preferably different than the default Belgian flag from Mac OS X.
## Acknowledgements
Thanks to Daniel Szmulewicz for providing the IBM keyboard layout.
