Hi Ufuk, if your Turkish F layout is tested and complete, I'd be willing to commit it to FreeBSD. The mail response by Wolfgang did not include the attachment, but I found it in the mail-list archive, and it looks good to me. The filename "tr.f.kbd" follows the existing naming scheme, I'd have chosen this name, too. One missing detail is the required addition to INDEX.keymaps (see /usr/share/vt/keymaps/INDEX.keymaps), which contains the following lines for the existing Turkish keymap: tr.kbd:en:Turkish tr.kbd:de:Türkisch tr.kbd:fr:Turc tr.kbd:uk:Турецька I might change that to read "Turkish (Q)" for the existing keymap and add "Turkish (F)" for "tr.f.kbd". Or should the existing entry remain as-is and "Turkish (F layout)" be added for your new keymap? Do you want to add Turkish keymap names to this list? (i.e. "tr.kbd:tr:..." and "tr.f.kbd:tr:...") BTW: Could you please provide a Turkish MENU line for INDEX.keymaps? Best regards, STefan
