You can also use some key combo to switch "groups". For example, I have
this in my ~/.xsessionrc:
setxkbmap -model pc104 \
-layout "de(legacy),el" \
-option "compose:caps" \
-option "altwin:alt_super_win" \
-option "terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp" \
-option "grp:shifts_toggle"
That means: two layouts: de, el (that's Greek -- ellenika), the capslock
is a compose key (capslock is useless for me, so I can input ♥ by entering
COMPOSE + < + 3), the alt windows key has an own code (I use that for all
the related window manager "hotkeys", so alt is available for programs),
I want to be able to kill my X servr with CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE, and now
it comes: by pushing *both* shifts at once I toggle between German
layout and ελλενικά.
I didn't know about setupcon, mentioned in this thread. Perhaps it's the
better solution (e.g. does it take care of the Linux consoles too? My
solution above is X only), perhaps not (e.g. is it as flexible as the
above?).
Whatever. Lots to play with :-) I'll definitely read on setupcon.
Cheers
