Keymaps (Re: Some questions)

How would you like localization to work?  I'm planning that the
translator would require --keymap=FILE on its command line;
the FILE would be in the same format as in the console-tools
of Linux.  The keymap could also be changed via fsysopts.

Should there be a builtin fallback if the FILE is unreadable?
(That would be very easy to implement.)

If the FILE doesn't bind all keys, should the fallback keymap
be used for the missing ones?

P.S.  Nobody has yet suggested a new name for the program.  :(
