Present keyboard layouts and options: $ gsettings list-recursively -sources Using gsettings in 18.04+ with Gnome, you can both add keyboard layouts and switch between them from the command line or from the keyboard layout switcher on the desktop. To do that, you only need wrap it into a script hooking to dbus-monitor like discussed here. This was precisely my goal, so here's the answer:
French keyboard layout copy password#
Right before my screensaver turns on, I want to switch to English so that it will be easy to type my password when I get back in.
Then xkb-switch would only let you switch between the layouts in current group. Options=grp_led:scroll,grp:rwin_switch,compose:menu,lv3:ralt_switch, it is set to less than the total number of layouts listed in LayoutList), like this: LayoutList=us,ua,th,de If your ~/.config/kxkbrc uses LayoutLoopCount (e.g. This looks better than the other solutions because setxkbmap ruins all options, and setxkbmap -layout, while it preserves the options, it still fails to change the taskbar indicator nor the grp_led if set. $ xkb-switch -s us # switch to a named group Just tested it with Ubuntu 16.04.4 LTS and it works flawelessly. It can be removed and installed on a new keyboard.There seems to be no standard CLI tool, but xkb-switch is a small open-source tool to do the job. Expect 140-160$ CAD per keycap set (tx included), 20$ CAD+ for the ANSI extra keys (3 more keys + 1 white stabilizer) (optional). I can make a small group buy for a small quantity (5-10 keycaps set per order). The keycap set alone (model F and M) can be sold from Model F Labs (you need to find an old model m and convert it, or a new model m). If you want a New Model M (Unicomp) ACNOR/CSA I can ask them again (actually it's not proposed). Otherwise, I also have a template ACNOR/CSA for WASDKeyboards but the quality is not the same (thin ABS/laser printed). My flickr : yes, I have a project for a keycap set PBT, ISO/ANSI for the ACNOR/CSA (cherry mx) layout but I need to order a larger quantity (50-200) from my supplier. The accents are using the same keys, you just have to get used to the "/" key being "é", for example, and not being able to see the accents on the other keys.įinally, I'm pretty sure there are no keycaps available specifically for french canadian, but there are some keysets that offer internationnal kits that come with the french keys, which you could use to replace the english keys (they show only the letter, so the À key would show that on the legend instead of just the accent). When I bought my Steelseries Apex over a year ago (a rubber dome), it was the first time I used the ansi layout and it was really easy to get used to it. In my opinion, the french canadian layout is useless. I know Logitech sells rubber domes with the french canadian layout, but I'm pretty sure all their mechs are using the english one. only sell the english ansi layout here, even on their rubber domes. For example, Razer, Corsair, Steelseries, etc. I live in Quebec and I can tell you that those keyboards either don't exist or are really rare.
