Some fixes already: r12628 + r12626 + r12624. See also #1172.

Looks like there aren't virtual keycodes for most of the keys, so we will have to use something like this ​How to convert ASCII character to CGKeyCode.

Here are some of the missing keys: exclam quotedbl sterling dollar percent asciicircum ampersand asterisk parenleft parenright braceleft braceright underscore colon at numbersign asciitilde comma period slash less greater question notsign bar

Maybe we should also set the modifier flags on key events using ​CGEventSetFlags

​Text_Input_Sources, of particular interest:

• kTISPropertyInputSourceLanguages
• kTISNotifySelectedKeyboardInputSourceChanged: '
• TISSelectInputSource : to set a particular layout. See for example ​LayoutTracker.

• ​pyobjc-framework-InputMethodKit: pyobjc wrapper for ​InputMethodKit
• ​input_source.py: list all input sources
• ​pykeycode: Python wrapper around the Mac TIS functions to convert between chars and keycodes

Don't have time, but this looks like it would help: ​https://github.com/jonathanlurie/PyUserInputGen/blob/master/pykeyboard/mac.py (has a keymap for AZERTY)
