[desktop-discuss] Country specific keyboard mappings with english desktop

[Alan Coopersmith]

And there's also kbd -s to change the keyboard layout as well, however,
it, like everything Stuart mentioned, just changes the default layout used
the next time you restart, and there is no good utility beyond xmodmap at
the moment for changing keyboard layouts on the fly.
