(In reply to Mark Linimon from comment #1)
I'm Brazilian, I just installed FreeBSD 13 stable, when using the console a=
nd
trying to use the common shortcuts for ABNT2 keyboards (tried with different
keyboards and different systems and configurations) they don't work.

"Alt GR" + "q" just types "q" and not "/"
"Alt GR" + "w" just types "w" and not "?"
"Alt GR" + "e" just types "e" and not "=C2=B0"
"Alt GR" + "c" just types "c" and not "=E2=82=A2"


During the installation process the keyboard keymap is not listed as Brazil=
ian
ABNT and Brazilian ABNT2 but Brazilian with and without accent keys. This
doesn't sound common or practical. We have 2 common keymaps here: ABNT and
ABNT2. "Brazilian keymap with accent keys" sounds strange, doesn't sound li=
ke
something a brazilian will naturally recognize 'cause we don't use these te=
rms
over here.

I don't know if this is the right channel but I would like these shortcuts =
to
be functional and the terms to be changed in the installation process.

English isn't my first language so I'm sorry if what I'm saying doesn't sou=
nd
right or respectful, but it really made a difference for me and my colleagu=
es.

And if it is possible also to change the rc.conf terms to keymap to
"keymap=3Dabnt" and "keymap=3Dabnt2".

I don't want to sound annoying but I figured it would make a lot of differe=
nce
to my college classmates.
