Summary: KEY_TILDE has nothing to do with tilde in NON-US keyboard 

Initial Comment:
Allegro version 4.2.2-2ubuntu1

I'm using keyboard layout SVE/FI. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:KB_Sweden.svg
In allegro there are KEY_TILDE, but it is not pointing tilde nor button-left-to-1. (§ in my keyboard).

I attached simple application which first print KEY_TILDE and then reads keyboard and prints scancodes of pressed keys.


When I start application it says:
Scancode for the key next to the 1 is according to allegro: 60

Button next to 1 says: Scancode: 74 (unicode: 167 [�])
backslash says: Scancode: 60 (unicode: 92 [\])
tilde says Scancode: 66 (unicode: 126 [~])
