You could use the setup program.  Alternativly, you could try the JonoF or
another Windows port - usually, that platform allows games to seperate the
physical keys 9for character movewent) from typing - basically the best of
both worlds.

Actually, it would be "A" "Z".  Dvorak shifts around the symbols to more
"suitable" locations.   (Yes, I'm also using a pseudo-Dvorak keyboard.)
