Handle and document all geometries from YAML
Hi,
Many thanks for this great project!
I had been maintaining my custom XKB symbols by hand until now, I'm grateful that I can now rely on a tool that translates a human-readable format into XKB.
This PR exposes in the CLI help the list of available geometries. The help now looks like this:
$ python -m kalamine.cli new --help
Usage: python -m kalamine.cli new [OPTIONS] OUTPUT_FILE
Create a new TOML layout description.
Options:
--geometry [ANSI|ISO|ABNT|JIS|ALT|ERGO]
Specify keyboard geometry (defaults to ISO).
--altgr / --no-altgr Set an AltGr layer (defaults to --no-altgr).
--1dk / --no-1dk Set a custom dead key (defaults to
--no-1dk).
--help Show this message and exit.
Also, before the PR, if you passed a geometry such as JIS
, it was silently ignored and changed to ISO
. The input geometry is now checked against the same list of geometries implemented in the YAML, and so all declared geometries are effectively supported.
Finally, the PR includes a minor altgt
→ altgr
fix.
