I have developed a Kurdish Arabic-Latin keyboard for X. The Arabic
keymap is taken from the de-facto standard under Windows, the keyboard
developed by the Kurd IT Group (kurditgroup.org).

The Level 3 and 4 latin keyboard is the American standard keyboard
with 5 additional Kurdish-Latin characters.

I started from the Persian keyboard, but because only two keys
remained unchanged, it doesn't make much sense to include "ir (basic)".

I would like to see this included into "ir" first, because the
alternative characters are more useful for Farsi. For the Iraqi (iq)
variant I may change some keys.

Please let me know if anything is missing or wrong.

Sorry for posting this before to the list without filing a bugreport.

Best regards,

Erdal
