Keyboard layout problem
Dvorak layout works for me automatically, but not with modifier keys. e.g. pressing c
inputs c
(in any appl), but ctrl+c
inputs crtl+i
(c
in dvorak is the same place as i
in qwerty)
It is not clear how to change the keyboard layout in arcan applications including durden.
It's been reworked somewhat and not completely documented yet. I assume that you are on a linux system using arcan natively (latest master on arcan and durden) with the linux console having the 'right' layout.
If so, the maps can be switched at runtime:
global/input/keyboard/maps/platform
(layout, model, variant, options) using the normal xkbcommon (other wayland compositors and xorg).
It can also be set before starting arcan:
arcan_db add_appl_kv arcan event_xkb_model something
(same with event_xkb_variant, event_xkb_options, event_xkb_layout).
