setxkb.sh -> setkb.sh
* Changed the name of the setxkb.sh script throughout * Sorry if this causes confusion anywhere! * Easier to type 'setkb' than 'setxkb' * Easier to distinguish from 'setxkbmap'

To switch to, say, an ANSI board without ergo mods, that's `4n` instead of `5caw`. Look in the scripts.

* Before trying out the BigBag, you may want to find out what your current XKB settings are. One way of seeing what you use is `setxkbmap -v 9`.

- To get the standard default layout back, you can use `setxkb 4n` for ANSI keyboards (`5n` for ISO). This depends on your locale though.

|
||||
* The 'Keep Symbols' layouts are intended for those who don't want to give up their symbol mappings. The 'Unified' variants are usually much better, and 'ks' may be missing symbols.
|
||||
* If you use Extend and want the `Ctrl+Alt+F#` TTY shortcuts back, disable F#-key Extend mappings in the `symbols/extend` file.
|
||||
- This is achieved easily by commenting out the [include "extend(lv5_fk)"][BB-ExtFK] bit (with two trailing slashes).
