I just moved to Mac and I need to get used to the keyboard of my Macbook Pro. I've seen images / maps of the QWERTY keyboards but could not find a proper one for French. I want to see what the modifier and options keys does etc. For example finding pipe (|) was by luck but where the heck are the square brackets?!

Here is my layout:

To activate the Keyboard Viewer, click on the Input Menu on the right side of your menu bar, and then click on "Show Keyboard Viewer".

  • If you do not yet have an Input Menu in your menu bar, go to System Preferences > Language and Text > Input Sources to add it. Probably French OS X has different names for these...
