[plt-scheme] Problem with french keyboard (related problem)

Good day, 

I have a problem with the ergonomic keyboard of Microsoft (there is
only one english version of this keyboard) when I use the French 
characters [ French (Canada) ]. In particular, < is always 
interpreted like ESC < (beginning of file) and > like ESC is always 
interpreted ESC > (beginning of file). I must say that in order to 
print a < or > with my keyboard, I must press ALT ' or ALT ". The 
problem doesn't appear with other software. I use windows xp but I 
had this problem with nt4 and windows 2000 and a more regular key 
board. 

Somebody with an idea of the parameters to modify to eliminate this 
problem.  

Thank you

OK, my turn to complain. A french keyboard, but under Windows 2000.

In order to enter #f I type # which produces two of them, with the cursor
between, then erase one before adding f (with one additional left or right
cursor jump). Not so nice...
