From: jjsf@gmv.es (Julio Sanchez) Subject: NEW: Keyboard definition for Spanish Date: Wed, 28 Apr 1993 14:00:40 GMT
Enclosed is a patch to keyboard.c in the kernel that implements two different
definitions for the Spanish keyboard. You can make use of them by applying
the patch to /usr/src/linux/kernel/chr_drv/keyboard.c and adding the
following two lines to the list of keyboards in /usr/src/linux/Makefile:
# KEYBOARD = -DKBD_ES -DKBDFLAGS=0
# KEYBOARD = -DKBD_ES_LATIN1 -DKBDFLAGS=0x97
You can then select any of these two definitions when you make a new
kernel. I am not sure why some languages define two keyboards. I did
the same and found that KBD_ES is simpler to use if you just write
in English or write programs and you don't mind the limitations. On
the other hand, KBD_ES_LATIN1 is a close simulation of the definition
in MS-DOS, but common keys in UNIX are not readily available. The
Spanish keyboard just does not have a key labeled ~, so I resorted to
define RIGHT-ALT plus the key that has the Spanish inverted ? and !
as ~. I would appreciate any better suggestion. MS-DOS cannot generate
directly that character. That explains the unusual KBDFLAGS used by
KBD_ES_LATIN1. This patch was produced two months ago and has been
circulated to selected people.
I have also produced a patch to fixkbd.c (getting quickly obsolete),
a keyboard definition for intl_con (dead keys didn't work properly)
and an Xmodmap definition (that is being posted to comp.windows.x.i386unix).
I had planned to do something similar for national (that is being now
distributed in SLS), but did not have time. I am leaving for two weeks,
if anyone is interested in any of the above, please contact me before
Friday, or wait till I come back.
All the best,
Julio
