yes, actually, with the wanted modification: dk.nodead.

No that is what is my problem. The engraving says {*'} {UC/LC}.
Today, I noticed, however, that the USB-envoding is very different
froma "normal" keyboard, when I run "wsconsctl map"
The mapings, you show below are from a "normal" keyboard. The
mapping I get is aspecial USB mapping where the "American" mapping
is 49 and the "Danish" mapping is 50. I have not decided how to
fix my problem, but your answer as wellas Michael vanElst's have helped
me a lot.

Well, I use "less" instead of "more", as I am so old that i implemented
the very first version of "less", downloaded from usenet. Firs in my own
~/bin. Later we decided to move it to /usr/local/bin. It suited us Danes
well, at less from the beginning supported the full Latin1 alphabet.
So much for history.
Kind regards
