German keyboard patch for Ultima 3 and Ultima 4
===============================================

If you play Ultima 3 or 4 with a German keyboard and a German keyboard
driver, the Y and Z keys won't work.
If you remove the German keyboard driver from your config.sys/autoexec.bat,
the Y and Z keys will work again, but they'll be switched.
