from keymap(5):
For example, consider the following extract from a kbdmap:
041 dgra 172 nop nop '|' '|' nop nop O
dgra '`' ( 'a' 224 ) ( 'A' 192 ) ( 'e' 232 ) ( 'E' 200 )
( 'i' 236 ) ( 'I' 204 ) ( 'o' 242 ) ( 'O' 210 )
( 'u' 249 ) ( 'U' 217 )
This extract configures the backtick key on a UK keyboard to act as a
grave accent key. Pressing backtick followed by space produces a back-
tick, and pressing a backtick followed by a vowel produces the
ISO-8859-1
symbol for that vowel with a grave accent.
