! ! ANSI Dvorak keyboard ! ! Author: Jeff Bigler (jcb@mit.edu) ! Last modified: 1996/08/27 13:45:30 by jcb@mit.edu ! ! This file should be given as an argument to xmodmap to ! switch from a qwerty to a Dvorak keyboard. ! ! 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! ! keysym q = quoteright quotedbl keysym w = comma less keysym e = period greater keysym r = p P keysym t = y Y keysym y = f F keysym u = g G keysym i = c C keysym o = r R keysym p = l L keysym bracketleft = slash question keysym bracketright = equal plus keysym a = a A keysym s = o O keysym d = e E keysym f = u U keysym g = i I keysym h = d D keysym j = h H keysym k = t T keysym l = n N keysym semicolon = s S keysym quoteright = minus underscore keysym z = semicolon colon keysym x = q Q keysym c = j J keysym v = k K keysym b = x X keysym n = b B keysym m = m M keysym comma = w W keysym period = v V keysym slash = z Z ! ! The keysyms for the top row have been moved to the end ! of the file (and translations that would normally have ! no effect are still included) because of conflicts with ! some of the extended keysyms on HP workstations. If the ! keysyms for the 8 and 9 keys are not defined explicitly ! *after* the keysyms for bracketleft and bracketright, ! they end up getting bound to "slash question" and "equal ! plus", respectively. ! keysym 1 = 1 exclam keysym 2 = 2 at keysym 3 = 3 numbersign keysym 4 = 4 dollar keysym 5 = 5 percent keysym 6 = 6 asciicircum keysym 7 = 7 ampersand keysym 8 = 8 asterisk keysym 9 = 9 parenleft keysym 0 = 0 parenright keysym minus = bracketleft braceleft keysym equal = bracketright braceright
