uh, pretty much.   That's why they called it ASCII American Standard 
Code for Information Interchange...  yup, pretty much. Worked pretty 
well too, for many many years, because so many languages derive from 
Latin, and most non third world countries use Latin derived character 
sets; yes, although missing dieresis and grave and acute accents, &c.

Specialized keytops are made now, but what if...
