Remapping US keyboard to use £ sign instead.

If you're like me and you've bought a PC from any other English-speaking country (which uses a US keyboard by default), but had to study or work in the UK, then you'll find that not having a £ sign on your keyboard can be rather annoying at times.

Out of that frustration, I've compiled this custom keyboard layout installer which remaps the $ sign to £. After installing, you can choose to use it as default, and remove the original US keyboard from the Control Panel (Region and Language > Keyboards and Languages).

PS - You can still input the dollar sign by using Alt+36 (hold down Alt while typing 3 then 6).

Here you go, enjoy!
