The xxkb program is a keyboard layout switcher and indicator. Unlike the
|
|
programs that reload keyboard maps and use their own hot-keys, xxkb is a
|
|
simple GUI for XKB (X keyboard extension) and just sends commands to and
|
|
accepts events from XKB. That means that it will work with the existing
|
|
configuration of X11 server without any modifications.
|
|
|
|
Additional features include:
|
|
|
|
- Remembers the current layout in each application and switches to it
|
|
on window focus change
|
|
- Can put its own icon on an application window titlebar
|
|
- Allows to designate two main layouts from multi-layout keymaps
|
|
- Alternative layouts can be set separately for each application and
|
|
can be changed during run-time
|
|
- Supports custom actions for certain windows (e.g. ignore, set initial
|
|
active layout on application startup)
|
|
- Can be docked as a docklet or placed in the system tray
