KBMAP 1
NAME
kbmap - show a list of available keyboard maps and switch between them.
SYNOPSIS
kbmap [ file ... ]
DESCRIPTION
Kbmap shows a single column consisting of the names of keyboard maps for different alphabets available on the system. With no arguments kbmap will look for files in /sys/lib/kbmap .

Clicking the right mouse button will highlight the entry and force the keyboard mapping defined in the corresponding file to become current for the system; typing 'q' quits.

Kbmap requires that the file /dev/kbmap served by kbmap (3) exists and is writable. ..SH FILES .TF /lib/kbmap/*

SOURCE
/sys/src/cmd/kbmap.c
"SEE ALSO"
kbmap (3)
BUGS
Not all keyboards map the entire set of characters, so one has to switch back to the default map before changing to another.
