Yes. I have a rough idea of what you would need to use for the best result. Unfortunately, I am still in the process of working on it myself with my Ada Doom 3 project. Please take a look at the links below and I will be glad to answer any questions. In short: the best option is to use window's raw input api and then writing a function that can translate virtual keycodes to the correctly translated character. A simple keyboard hook may do the trick as well and would be much easier to implement.
