! This file should be given as an argument to xmodmap to

! switch from a qwerty to a right-handed keyboard (designed

! for amputees and other people who type with only their

! right hand).

!

! The keyboard layout is:

!

! ~   !   @   #   $   J   L   M   F   P   ?   [   +   |

! `   1   2   3   4   j   l   m   f   p   /   ]   =   \

!

!      %   ^   Q   >   O   R   S   U   Y   B   :   {

!      5   6   q   .   o   r   s   u   y   b   ;   }

!

!       &   *   Z   A   E   H   T   D   C   K   _

!       7   8   z   a   e   h   t   d   c   k   -

!

!        (   )   X   <   I   N   W   V   G   "

!        9   0   x   ,   i   n   w   v   g   '

!

! Note that Null translations have been included as

! comments.

!

! If you want to be easily able to switch the keyboard

! back to its previous state, first run xmodmap -pke and

! redirect the output to a file.  Then you can switch back

! by giving that file as an argument to xmodmap.  For

! example, if you type:

!

!     xmodmap -pke > /tmp/keyboard.default

!

! before switching the keyboard, you can then type:

!

!     xmodmap /tmp/keyboard.default

!

! to reset the keyboard to its previous state.

!

! Note that if you pass this file again as an argument to

! xmodmap, you will apply these translations a second time

! and come out with gibberish!
