Hi all,
this is definetely a FAQ, since I found several similar questions in
the archives.
However, I was unable to find any appropriate answers. So here is another
try:
I am using cygwin on a laptop with a native American keyboard and a
spearate
German keyboard in my docking station. Hence, I have to switch my keyboard
mapping from time to time and do so using the control panel (or shift+ctrl)
for
windows applications respectively:
keyb gr,,C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\KEYBOARD.SYS
and keyb us ... for DOS boxes.
Unfortunately these schemes do not work for bash or tcsh in normal mode.
bash remains with the German keyboard (I don't know why this setup
was
chosen) except when bash is started with the '--noediting' option.
Any solutions?
Regards
