Subject: [kbd] [PATCH] Change misleading kbd_mode message for XLATE mode
Date: Sat, 2 Jan 2010 17:34:40 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1262450081-7229-1-git-send-email-michi@uiae.at> (raw)
[-- Warning: decoded text below may be mangled, UTF-8 assumed --]
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1243 bytes --]
The text said “default (ASCII) mode”, which is wrong in two respects:
XLATE isn’t limited to 7-bit ASCII, but works with various 8-bit
charsets, and the XLATE mode hasn’t been the kernel default for a while.
Thanks for the hint go to Samuel Thibault <sthibault@debian.org>.
The usage of kbd_mode together with grep in shell scripts might become
an issue with this commit, though cursory research with
codesearch.google.com shows only the BiCon project
<http://sourceforge.net/projects/bicon/>, which does “kbd_mode | grep -q
-i Unicode” and is thus unaffected.
