H... There are many countries/languages which use keyboards with
different layouts. This affects the location of some important signs
such as "/". It's very annoying for a new FreeBSD user typing "/"
while getting "&" in the disklabel screen, for example.

Jordan, what do you think about making the keymap selection the first
step of the "Standard" installation?

Well, the idea in the large menus is that only the first item in a
given alphabetical category has an accelerator so you can jump
straight to that "letter" with relative ease.  Whether the accelerator
is also "free" or not is another question, but the alphabetical issue
is still important.

Ah, I understood.  Accelerator "C" is already used for "Cancel".  Is
"F" used for something?

This unfortunately breaks the alphabetical menu accelerator behavior.
You can't have that space at the beginning - it's special. :)
Any other way of shortening the menus is fair, however, and I'd
be happy to see you or anyone else do something like this.

sysinstall's console keymap menu

2000-10-24 Thread Jun Kuriyama 


Hi Jordan,

How about this patch to display keymap menu correctly with 80 column
width console?

# If someone have a good idea to abbrevate "(accent)" string,
# I'd like to trim this word to reduce left column width of this menu.
