[Wine] Keyboard map

Hi all,

Does anybody know how to change the keyboard map in wine... I can't
find any documentation on it... I checked in the ./wine/system.reg
(something like that) file, and there was a keyboard entry with a 10
digit number after it - totally incomprehensible!

I'm running BibleWorks 6 from a Windows partition (because it won't
install under wine).  The Windows partition and the Linux are both
using correct keyboard maps - so wine is the problem.  Most things map
(letters, numbers) but special characters don't - which makes the
software hard to use - as BW requires special characters for complex
wildcard searches (which is the point of using Bible Works).

Any help appreciated!  I'm running 64bit Ubuntu Edgy with wine .debs
from: http://ubuntu.moshen.de.  Windows partition is running XP Home.
I'm using a Mesh laptop (small uk company) with a standard UK mapped
104 key keyboard.

The particular sign I really want is @... which isn't amazingly
unusual!
