Created attachment 133262 [details] [review] Finnish Dvorak keyboard symbols file patch There's no existing Dvorak layout for Finnish included in XKB, and few exist to begin with. This is me trying to fix that. This layout includes dedicated keys for adiaeresis and odiaeresis; adiaeresis on the extra LSGT key to the left side of shift found on nordic keyboards, and odiaeresis on the QWERTY Z key. This places them in a quite comfortable and logical spot in the Dvorak vowel cluster. Colon and semicolon, normally found on the QWERTY Z key on Dvorak, have been moved to shift-period and shift-comma respectively, and the less and greater than symbols have been moved to altgr-comma and altgr-period respectively. There are a few differences from the US/International Dvorak layout, in the form of extra glyphs on the 3rd and 4th level, mostly focused on those in use in the Nordic languages. Other than that, and the colon, semicolon, and less and greater than symbols mentioned above, the layout is identical to the US/International Dvorak. I've personally used this layout for 6 years now, but haven't published it anywhere so I can't say it has any other users. Regardless, I'm submitting it into base instead of extra because there is no existing Finnish Dvorak layout. If you disagree with me, you may put it in extra.

Thank you committed. But I put it into extras.
