QWERTY-Lafayette for kbd
QWERTY-Lafayette layout for linux console.
Using ISO 8859-15 character set
No dead key variants if needed.
ISO 8859-1 variant because required for real dead key
Differences with regular QWERTY-Lafayette
Due to the limitations in kbd I couldn't implement everything the layout allows. I kept it as close to original as possible.
In the main layout, the dead key for accented letters does not act like a dead key but just a regular shifting key.
In the latin1 version it acts like a real dead key but lacks some characters due to limitations.
It also does does the ¨ on shift instead of double type because of techical limitations.
Differences between variants
This repo adds a variant without a dead key because it does not act like the real QWERTY-Lafayette dead key.
The dead key is replaced with ¨ and €. It's still possible to make all letters.
Install
You need the make program. Run these commands
make
sudo make install
Then load the layout with:
loadkeys fr-lafayette
or
loadkeys fr-lafayette-no-dead-keys
Make it permanent by changing /etc/vconsole.conf
KEYMAP=fr-lafayette
