Fwd: Tech note on Installable Keyboard Layouts

[starner@xxxxxxxxxxx]

Has anyone thought about possibly supporting these on Linux? It'd be nice to have a keyboard layout that was portable to more than one system (counting X as one system.) The big differences seem to be that the compose table is inside the keyboard file and that the keyboards can be more powerful. (I'd like more flexibility on compose tables; they're not user changable under X, and some combinitions are so idiosyncric. I'd like the dead ring to act like COMBINING CHARACTER RING ABOVE, and not some times be a dot or whatever else the file writing thought would be convienant.)
