Alternate keyboard settings within EQ?

[banchicawawo]

So I just returned back to EQ and purchased the existing Underfoot client available on Steam. I noticed a few cool things when I log in, such as the client now recognizes extra keybindings that EQ never did before, like the mouse4 and mouse5 keys (which I use regularly).

However, I noticed some odd grammar on my character (no, I'm not referring to issues with common tongue!) I can't type certain characters on my keyboard, such as an apostrophe (') or plus sign (+).

It's as if these keys don't work at all. It happens with mostly special characters, but I think somehow EQ is stuck on some kind of chinese keyboard (at least according to some of the googling I've done). It's odd because I can type completely normally in Notepad or MS Word, even while I'm in game, so it's not a system setting, just some kind of EQ setting.

Has anyone seen anything like this before? Any ideas?
