Thank you for all the responses especially to axeld for commenting on 7965
and everyone who commented on 7967.
I didn't get any responses on 7964 so I assume that the keyboard layout
files are acceptable.
One change that I was thinking of making was to put the Apple Aluminum
layout files in their own subdirectory in
data/src/data/KeyboardLayouts/Apple Aluminum/ since there are a bunch of
them. I did that and added support in the keymap preference app to create a
submenu for the Apple Aluminum/ subdirectory to the keyboard layouts menu.
Unfortunately, in order to build the image I had to change line 124 of
build/scripts/build_haiku_image from
cp="$fsShellCommand cp -f"
to
cp="$fsShellCommand cp -rf"
in order to get the image to build with a subdirectory in data/system/data.
I don't know what the full impact of this change is though. It works for me
but perhaps this isn't a good change.
Advice welcome, thank you,
John Scipione
