And here is the Debian (Ubuntu) Implementation, namely US International with dead keys:

You're better off asking on a more generalist site, you to customize Windows keyboard layouts isn't on-topic here. Also msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/goglobal/bb964665.aspx – Mat Feb 16 at 10:22
I don't quiet get it, you were trying to migrate the shortcut configuration, not the keyboard layout right? – warl0ck Feb 16 at 10:45
@Mat: Also msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/goglobal/bb964665.aspx If you read the last sentence of my question you know that this is exactly not the solution what I'm looking for. Thanks. – superuser Feb 16 at 20:46
@warl0ck: The whole US International with dead keys layout as it is. – superuser Feb 16 at 22:54
Can we move this to Meta instead of straight out closing it? Thank you. – superuser Feb 18 at 14:17
