46    The default keyboard map depends on the current locale (LC_* and LANG
47    environment variables). If the current locale is unknown, the default
48    keyboard map is en-us (a US English keyboard).
49    
50    The keyboard maps are file names, which means that they are case
51    sensitive. The standard keymaps are all in lowercase.
52    
53    The keyboard maps are searched relative to the directories
54    $HOME/.rdesktop/keymaps, KEYMAP_PATH (specified at build time), and
55    $CWD/keymaps, in this order. The keyboard-map argument can also be an
56    absolute filename.
57    
58    The special value `none' can be used instead of a keyboard map.
59    In this case, rdesktop will guess the scancodes from the X11 event key
60    codes using an internal mapping method. This method only supports the
61    basic alphanumeric keys and may not work properly on all platforms
62    so its use is discouraged.
