Entering decimal points (*commas*) in French locale.

[Neil Woolford]

Hi,

The French locale uses a comma rather than full-stop (period) as the separator between
a number and its decimal part.  This is correct behaviour, but makes entering numbers on
the number-pad awkward as it produces a full-stop on the 'del' key.

This occurs even if I use the fr (French) keyboard layout.

What I want to be able to do is enter amounts in euro into OpenOffice.org spreadsheets
under a French locale, using just the number-pad, without having to swap back to the main
keyboard to enter commas as decimal separators.

Because I am not used to the French (azerty) layout, I'd really prefer to do it using the
US International option.

Is there any way to remap the keyboard so that the number-pad produces a comma rather than
a full-stop?

Thanks,

Neil
