XKB keyboard layout for X11 - Algeria
I'm working on an alternative standardised layout of the dz xkb for GNU/Linux based on the freedesktop package, mainly /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/dz
and /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/*
Note : Please don't use this work in production situation. It is a work in progress.
Main changes :
- Introducing
ɛ
Ɛ
γ
Γ
alphabetic letters and commonly used Unicode symbols - Getting rid off extra characters such as egrave, apostrophe, agrave, ccedilla and so on : éèùàç'
- Reorganising the dz syntax with tabs
- Better ASCII keyboard layouts view in terminal mode
- Using kab or regional kab_dz as ISO since Tamazight is not defined.
The idea is to add a Qwerty(z), Dvorak, Bépo, Colemak like layouts for Kabyle and take into consideration Mac layout, OLPC and other OS.
