- ! This file should be given as an argument to xmodmap to
- ! switch from a qwerty to a right-handed keyboard (designed
- ! for amputees and other people who type with only their
- ! right hand).
- !
- ! The keyboard layout is:
- !
- ! ~ ! @ # $ J L M F P ? [ + |
- ! ` 1 2 3 4 j l m f p / ] = \
- !
- ! % ^ Q > O R S U Y B : {
- ! 5 6 q . o r s u y b ; }
- !
- ! & * Z A E H T D C K _
- ! 7 8 z a e h t d c k -
- !
- ! ( ) X < I N W V G "
- ! 9 0 x , i n w v g '
- !
- ! Note that Null translations have been included as
- ! comments.
- !
- ! If you want to be easily able to switch the keyboard
- ! back to its previous state, first run xmodmap -pke and
- ! redirect the output to a file. Then you can switch back
- ! by giving that file as an argument to xmodmap. For
- ! example, if you type:
- !
- ! xmodmap -pke > /tmp/keyboard.default
- !
- ! before switching the keyboard, you can then type:
- !
- ! xmodmap /tmp/keyboard.default
- !
- ! to reset the keyboard to its previous state.
- !
- ! Note that if you pass this file again as an argument to
- ! xmodmap, you will apply these translations a second time
- ! and come out with gibberish!
