[Qemacs-devel] adding new kmaps to qemacs

[Ken Beesley]

In the Makefile for qemacs-0.3.1 I see

#
# Key maps build (Only useful if you want to build your own maps from yudit 
maps)
#
KMAPS=Arabic.kmap ArmenianEast.kmap ArmenianWest.kmap Chinese-CJ.kmap \
      Cyrillic.kmap Czech.kmap DE-RU.kmap Danish.kmap Dutch.kmap \
      Esperanto.kmap Ethiopic.kmap French.kmap Georgian.kmap German.kmap \
      Greek.kmap GreekMono.kmap Guarani.kmap Hebrew.kmap HebrewIsraeli.kmap \
      Hungarian.kmap \
      KOI8_R.kmap Kana.kmap Lithuanian.kmap Mnemonic.kmap Polish.kmap \
      Russian.kmap SGML.kmap TeX.kmap Troff.kmap VNtelex.kmap \
      Vietnamese.kmap XKB_iso8859-4.kmap
#     Hangul.kmap Hangul2.kmap Hangul3.kmap Unicode2.kmap


KMAPS_DIR=$(prefix)/share/yudit/data
KMAPS:=$(addprefix $(KMAPS_DIR)/, $(KMAPS))

kmaptoqe: kmaptoqe.c
        $(HOST_CC) $(CFLAGS) -o $@ $<

ifdef BUILD_ALL
kmaps: kmaptoqe $(KMAPS)
        ./kmaptoqe $@ $(KMAPS)
endif


Questions:

1.  To add a new entry method (keymap) to qemacs, does one
need to provide the Language.kmap file or the Language.my file
(which is derived from the .kmap file)?  Or both?

2.  Where should the new file(s) be placed to be seen by yudit?

Yudit now places the .kmap files in ..yudit/share/src/ and the
derived .my files in ..yudit/share/data/

Any guidance would be much appreciated.

Ken
