I am using Interleaf 4.0 on Apollo SR9.7 - soon to be SR10.1. I have a user who is accustomed to the Dvorak keyboard. He is able to issue key definitions to map his standard keyboard to the Dvorak layout. This works great for Unix commands but does not work in Interleaf. Interleaf provides alternative keyboard layouts (e.g. Swedish) but Dvorak is not one of them. Does anyone know of one? Scott Sheppard

Back when I worked for the Canadian office, we were given copies of the remapping file so we could do standard french-canadian keyboards (specifically for Suns: I'm **not** sure we had one of Apollo). The file is ascii, and is editable. You will need to get a description of it, as I don't remember its syntax, from someone at Interleaf... Who have a direct link to Sun, but don't seem to be in my uucp maps(!?). I suggest you write a sed script to convert Apollo keymap files into Interleaf, by the way, and maybe your-own-private-format into Apollo. I don't find many of the formats particularly intelligable (:-)).
