[hackers] [svkbd][PATCH] this patch fixes uppercase in armenian (and perhaps some other) layouts. svkbd was previously registering a key in one modification (xorg accepts up to 4 modifications). with this patch svkbd registers 2 modifications - upper and lower case. function tmp_remap changed in a way that if the key is not found in a current layout, it is temporary added to it. for cyrillic layout uppercase (when shift is pressed) letters were showing anyway, because those are somehow found (modified) by xorg. but for armenian layout that did not work. now works.
