Bug#593099: /usr/bin/setxkbmap: bash: getting current keymap

[yellow <yellowprotoss@gmail.com>]

Package: x11-xkb-utils
Version: 7.5+5
Severity: minor
File: /usr/bin/setxkbmap




I'm writing a little bash script that will toggle the keymap.  I am currently using "setxkbmap -print|grep -q $KBD1" to check the current keymap. It's working fine for this case but I am wondering if there is a command that returns the current keymap.  I've read man pages for setxkbmap, xmodmap, etc but couldn't find anything.


#!/bin/bash

KBD1=us
KBD2=ca_enhanced

if setxkbmap -print|grep -q $KBD1
then
  setxkbmap $KBD2
else
  setxkbmap $KBD1
fi

it could be useful that setxkbmap says which one is currently using : 
de, fr, us, ca ;;; or customed ...
