Computer keyboard layout

[mtbc]

As one might expect my new laptop computer has the two Windows keys on each side next to the two ALT keys and is UK layout. Getting used to a UK keyboard is weird. I used to set the Windows keys to produce useful symbols for me like £, ¢, °, →, that kind of thing. I am not sure that my thumbs are enjoying the buttons at the bottom of the touchpad though so right now I am quite liking having mapped the left key to the left mouse button and the right key to the middle mouse button.

Void Linux offers fewer packages than Debian but typically still ones that do what I want. In this case I have replaced xmacroplay with xdotool. Or, as another example, ssvnc isn't offered so I simply grabbed the tightvnc JAR.
