I have found that there are some of the punctuation key which give the wrong result in my iBook running VRPC. I have set the British mapping in <system preferences.International> but the UK(default) does not agree fully with my keyboard. Everything else is even more wrong.
Is there anything I can do this end or do you need full info to correct this?

The problem is that the Apple keyboards are non standard. They have a different key layout to that expected by RISC OS. For example a lot of keyboards don't even have a # (hash) key.
I havw attempted to make a RISC OS key driver for the Mac layout(s) but haven't had any luck in getting it to work correctly so far.
