Search over the ports collection, if I remember correctly such a software exist under some x11-* collections. It was meant to switch between Russian and US layout. I think you can reach same behavior by creating two different keymaps and using xmodmap(1) to load necessary keymap on the fly. It seems very simple but creating correct keymap is black art for me. Better use ready to use keymaps and modify them as needed. -- Vallo Kallaste vallo@matti.ee To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
