Reduced Layout Pack - List of Layouts
=====================================

Following is a list of layouts for XKeyb. Should the appropriate layout for
your keyboard not work accordingly, please upgrade your XKeyb program.

Most of the layouts related to codepage 437 are actually stripped  versions
of the real keyboards, due to the fact that codepage 437 does  not  provide
some labeled or accented characters  available  through  combinations  with
dead keys. Such layouts are available here due  to  hardware  compatibility
purposes (i.e. CGA monitors). If you are using (at least) an  EGA  monitor,
the layouts presenting all the keys of such keyboards can be found  in  the
Full Layout Pack.

Notes
=====

There is a reference to Ireland on MS-DOS(c) v6.2x, which actually points to
the UK layout. There is an irish layout available at the Full Layout Pack.

There are references to "Yugoslavia Latin" and "Yugoslavia Cyrillic" layouts
which here are related to Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia and Slovenia (Y. Latin)
and Macedonia, Serbia and Montenegro (Y. Cyrillic).

There are references to Canada (English) and Canada (French) though actually
both of them point to the same layout.

There are countries listed above for which there are not proprietary layouts
such as Argentina, Australia and Austria; they are otherwise listed here due
to the fact that they are mentioned on MS-DOS(c) documentation.



Notebook keyboards
==================

All the layouts were developed according to their  desktop  variations. Some
of them provide 101 keys, while some of them  provide  102  keys. Generally,
portable computer keyboards follow the same  mappings. Should  any  of  them
differ anyhow from their desktop counterparts, any feedback would be greatly
appreciated.
