Finally got round to doing this and the result is...different.

Every key except x still works. Now, however, instead of getting a ` 
character when pressing it I get BOTH x and ` - in other words "x`". I 
also get "w<tab>" when pressing the tab key, and "w<tab>" when pressing 
the w key.

It's dead Jim.


Cheers,
Ian
