Description scootergrisen 2019-02-06 02:45:45 UTC 
How come the kbd files in these two folder does not use the same style for file names?:

    /share/vt/keymaps
    /share/syscons/keymaps

For danish layout we have:

    share/vt/keymaps/dk.acc.kbd
    share/vt/keymaps/dk.kbd
    share/vt/keymaps/dk.macbook.kbd

    share/syscons/keymaps/danish.cp865.kbd
    share/syscons/keymaps/danish.iso.acc.kbd
    share/syscons/keymaps/danish.iso.kbd
    share/syscons/keymaps/danish.iso.macbook.kbd

So "dk" is used in one folder and "danish" in the other.

But for other languages its consistent ("cz" and "cz":

    share/vt/keymaps/cz.kbd
    share/syscons/keymaps/cz.iso2.kbd

Another example:

    share/vt/keymaps/nordic.asus-eee.kbd
    share/syscons/keymaps/eee_nordic.kbd

I would like for them to use the same style.
Like 2 letter language code etc.

Generally the 2 letter code is preferred, but there are some layouts that don't really fit into the scheme.
