It's indeed an "AZERTY" layout, not the usual "QWERTY" of the CoCo.
Well, accented characters (like "é") don't make sense since the ASCII
character set of the 6847 VDG doesn't support them. By the way, German
keyboards have a "QWERTZ" layout but for shure there's never been such a
CoCo keyboard (although a CoCo at least displaying "ÄäÖöÜüß" would be
nice.. ;-))).
