swiss german keyboard config needed

[nico dreher <nico.dreher@hgkz.net>]

<x-tad-bigger>Hello list,

I am looking for an ALT- and CTRL- configuration on a Swiss German qwertz keyboard (PowerBook G3 Lombard).

I tried the sample .Xmodmap from
http://lists.debian.org/debian-powerpc/2003/debian-powerpc-200308/msg00182.html (see quoted below).

However I am looking for an .Xmodmap that behaves like on a standard Macintosh keyboard, i.e. @ = ALT + g, # = ALT + 3, | = ALT + 7, etc.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Thx, nico
