Since the new console expects a Unicode locale, all the different encodings are no longer needed - but all files had to be converted from their respective encodings to Unicode. Since the character encoding is no longer required in the file names, all names where converted to be named by ISO country code (plus ISO language code, where required) followed by modifiers (e.g. .acc for accent keys). It is likely, that I introduced regressions, even though I spent quite a few hours on the conversion process and the manual verification of the results. These files are currently only committed to -CURRENT and I plan to MFC to 10-STABLE as soon as possible (and permitted), which is in 3 days. If you are able to test the keymap files under -CURRENT, I'd love to receive your feedback and remarks. Please do not commit any fixes directly to -CURRENT, since I'm still working on these files (I'm afraid of merge conflicts and higher effort required for the MFC in a few days ...). If you are a (potential) NEWCONS user on -STABLE, you may want to extract the contents of http://people.freebsd.org/~se/vt-keymaps.tar.bz2 into /usr/share/vt/keymaps. (The Makefile is not required, if you directly extract to that directory, but it does no harm.) We really want to have verified keymaps for NEWCONS in 10-STABLE and the more "special" your language (i.e. the farther it is away from ISO8859-1 ;-) ) the bigger the risk that some specialty has been lost during the conversion. Please test and report your expected deadkeys vs. nodeadkeys experience, the combinations of Shift, Ctrl, Alt, Alt-Gr and all keys that you expect to support such modifiers, and the Caps Lock behavior (on keys that respect or ignore Caps Lock). I'll be reserving a few hours each day to get this into good shape for 10.1. Best regards, STefan
