[Bug 1279898] Re: New keyboard layout for Albanian

 

I would find an alternative keyboard also for Hungarian very useful. Non
native speakers cannot imagine how uncomfortable the official layouts
are; eg accented characters are much more important than q, w or even c.

I suggest
making a user configurable keyboard
or
giving a detailed description for making own layouts (without using launchpad, creating new branches and so on).

Thanks.

Title:
  New keyboard layout for Albanian

Status in xkeyboard-config package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I would like to have at least one alternative keyboard layout for the
  Albanian language provided as a distro update or as part of future
  releases of Linux distros.

  The "official" Albanian layout is somewhat inadequate and highly
  unpopular among Albanian users. For that reason, I have created and
  published two alternative layouts that take into account the market in
  Albanian-speaking countries (dominated by US mechanical keyboards) and
  user preferences (for a layout similar to the US model).

  You may find more information about the layout on Wikipedia
  (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albanian_keyboard_layout#Plisi) or on
  my Albanian-language website (http://www.plisi.al/softwer/tastiera-
  plisi-d) where you may also download the installation files.

  Thank you,
  GM
