 Thanks for the fixes.
 
 A couple of questions:
 
 What is the difference between swissgerman-1.iso.kbd and
 swissgerman-2.iso.kbd?  I cannot read explanation in
 http://www.attic.ch/keymaps.html ;-(
 
 Do swiss keyboards have `dead' keys (or `accent' keys) with which you
 generate accented characters?  Many European language keymaps have
 a keymap with `dead' key definitions and another keymap without
 `dead' key definitions (for example, fr.iso.acc.kbd and fr.iso.kbd).
 
 >(Yokota/SOS): Does a reference ISO-keymap exist and is
 
 I am afraid not.
 
 >there a list of the important special key's with their
 >meaning ?
 
 Um, how about this?
