Modify or create a file .xintrc in the home directory:
usermodmap=$HOME/.Xmodmap
sysmodmap=/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/.Xmodmap
if [ -f $sysmodmap ]; then
xmodmap $sysmodmap
fi
if [ -f $usermodmap ]; then
xmodmap $usermodmap
fi
exec quartz-wm
(exec starts the window manager: quartz-wm is the one included in
OpenGL by Apple. You may freely displace it with your preferred WM)
Then .xinitrc create a file .Xmodmap in the home directory. The italian
keyboard contains the following codes, that you can easily arrange:
! Use Alt_L and Alt_R as Mode_switch keys
clear mod1
keycode 66 = Mode_switch
keycode 69 = Mode_switch
add mod1 = Mode_switch
! numbers line
keycode 18 = backslash bar
keycode 27 = 2 quotedbl
keycode 28 = 3 sterling
keycode 31 = 5 percent asciitilde
keycode 30 = 6 ampersand
keycode 34 = 7 slash
keycode 36 = 8 parenleft
keycode 33 = 9 parenright
keycode 37 = 0 equal
keycode 35 = apostrophe question
keycode 32 = iacute asciicircum
! tab line
keycode 41 = egrave eacute bracketleft braceleft
keycode 38 = plus asterisk bracketright braceright
!caps lock line
keycode 49 = ograve ccedilla at
keycode 47 = agrave masculine numbersign
keycode 50 = ugrave section
!shift line
keycode 58 = less greater
keycode 51 = comma semicolon
keycode 55 = period colon ellipsis
keycode 52 = minus underscore endash emdas
You may need xmodmap, that is distribuited by Apple with X11.
xmodmap -pk > ~/keyboardcodes.txt
prints a file with the codes and the corresponding carachters.
Hope it helps.
