<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div>I made a patch to add support for two new key combinations on the br-abnt2 layout and I'd like to see this change implemented on the upstream project to be released on a future stable version.<br>
<br></div>This patch adds support for the key combinations "AltGr + Q = /" and "AltGr + W = ?", which are correct with respect for the br-abnt2 layout, as you can see on wikipédia[1] and photos from several brazilian keyboards[2][3].<br>
<br></div>Some keyboards for latops with br-abnt2 layout (notably from the ThinkPad series) disrespect the standard and don't provide a reliable means to use the character/key "/", which is essential for system administration. Fortunately, the altgr + q and altgr + w key combinations let the user to use these characters (slash and question). The patch adds support for their use on console.<br>
<br></div>Xorg already supports these key combinations for some time and the patch only updates the console counterpart.<br><br></div>I'm attaching the patch (generated with git format-patch) in this email. Let me know if I need to do anything else to have the patch accepted.<br>
