  Amen. I guess French people now grin, reading this thread... "A"next to
Control? There is no "A" next to Control" :))  U can't generalize and say
Control on Atari keyboard is badly placed.. It's bad for one layout and not
so bad for other.. On PC there are " Z X C" near Alt key, and Caps near Shift
etc..  I'm sure there are people in the world to hate that in certain
applications. So only sane solution from ergonomic point of view is to move
those keys 10 cm away... Which then is not ergonomic again, since u need top
move hand...
