As a European, I have a secret trick about keyboards, that I "got 
for free" with my Kaypro-II computer (the blue-key version), back 
in 1984.

Always use the en-US keyboard when programming. Period!

Keys, such as []{}\/?|*$ etc. are in very handy and quick places. 
The inventors of programming languages and operating systems have 
put the most used characters in easy-to-reach keys. -- And on top 
of it, all of the funky key combinations just work.

On Linux, I merely press both Shifts to temporarily switch to my 
native language, which I only need for text strings, nothing 
else. I'd expect Windows and Mac to provide something similar.

After a couple of weeks, you'll never look back.
