Appropriate Keymap for me?
by business_kid from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4SQY9)
I'm in Ireland and want a better keymap. Can I find a listing of what the various layouts contain anywhere, so I can adopt a less irritating approach than 'suck it and see?'
Last go I had, I farted about with keymaps and settled for what I thought was the best of a bad lot, without testing too exhaustively. It's not the letters that bother me, but the Unicode characters.
I need a, (as in 100), as many basic math symbols as possible. I also need the 'cent' sign,(Alt_Gr_c gives me nothing; 2 consecutive 'Alt_Gr_c' gives me the French cedilla).
I want an Irish 'fada'(=French acute accent) on the vowels. I kinda need the Greek u (=Electronics symbol for 'micro' as in 10^-6). I know about Xmodmap, but it's a pain to go and write one.
