I haven't used these libraries, but I just wonder if one can decompress "parts" of a file, if the layouts are all (or most) in a single KEYBOARD.SYS file.
In any case, I think I'll leave this for version 3.X, there's enough stuff to keep me busy with 2.X already ;-)

Moreover: I vote to include decompression library into KEYB (and any other utilities with external data files). There are some libraries with good compression ratio, big unpacking speed (not much lesser than speed of native memory copying), small code (around 50-200 bytes for depacker) and small or none memory requirements for unpacking. For example, currently Jibz develops one, which is simplified version of his aPLib. Example: original 30480 pkzip 2.50 18086 apack 17577 lib 21571
