Is there any work being done to figure out how to assemble different
keymappings for different countries and keyboards or is it more one on one?

hi there,
i have been trying to write a keymap file for my "british" iBook G4 keyboard.
and i have uncovered something very scary indeed... the macros for a lot of the
symbols do not translate into their respective font!
for example, if i bind "plusminus" to a key combination, i do not get output

I have an older clamshell iBook with a US keyboard. From the documentation on
Apple's website[1], the Apple logo/command key should be the windows key when
the special 'fn' key is held down. However, in both the console and XFree86,
the fn+Apple Logo generates keycode 116 on the console (using
.org) and/or
against the xlibs Debian package.

Hello,
few days ago, I wrote the italian ibook keymap for the linux shell, and

Now the keyboard works fine. I'd like to share these files to other

changing a conso

Such a keymap ought to work on both m68k and powerpc Macs. I really
