Package: xlibs Version: N/A Severity: wishlist Tags: patch I've a client who types on a Dvorak keyboard, and has done so for years and years. When he learned Dvorak, the layout had the numeric row swapped around, where the layout that ships with XFree86 has the number keys in the same sequence as with the Qwerty layout. I was hired to create a Dvorak Classic layout for him, and part of the deal was to submit the new keymap for inclusion upstream. He says that he really enjoys the Gnome panel keymap swapper applet, since for most work, the Dvorak Classic layout is the right thing, but for some tasks, such as running "aptitude" inside a terminal emulator, he thinks that the Qwerty layout works better. Inside the attached tar.gz is the keymap file and patches to the meta data files (used by the Gnome XKB GUI) along with brief instructions. I hope that you can incorporate them into the Debian XFree86 packages, and also submit them upstream. -- Karl Hegbloom <hegbloom@pdx.edu>
