The layouts are useful for me. Could be useful for you.
Write me if you wish. Bugreports are welcome.
English and Russian XKB symbols for ugly cropped 61 keys keyboards.
The layouts are hardcoded with typo(base) for 3-rd and 4-th levels. In order to use XKB options instead, you can comment out the includes include "typo(base)".
K61 mappings is not the option but the feature of this symbols.
This symbols set also conntains the mix of Younger and Elder FUTHARK runes.
Look into ./symbols/qq for the additional info, like the "pictures" of layouts.
1, Backup /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/qq if you have it.
2, Copy the ./symbols/qq to /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/
You can use the symbols with setxkbmap command.
$ setxkbmap -layout qq,qq,qq -variant typo-us-k61,typo-ru-k61,mfuthark # ...
In order to select the layouts in desktop environments, add the descriptions to XML rules. The XML descriptions are in the file base.qq.inc.xml.
To add the XML descriptions, cd to /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules, and:
1, Backup base.xml and evdev.xml.
2, Insert ./rules/base.qq.inc.xml into base.xml to the latest position inside the layoutList, right before the closing tag.
XPath: /xkbConfigRegistry/layoutList/layout[last]
3, Copy base.xml to evdev.xml.
PS. setxkbmap does not use the XML descriptions.
