Bug#521116: please add keyboard set up feature

[Stéphane Blondon]

Package: jumpnbump
Version: 1.50+dfsg1-2
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

Hello,

The keys used are chosen for QWERTY keyboard so they don't fit with
any keymap for one or two rabbits. I wrote a patch that allow the use
of configuration files (/etc/jumpnbump.conf and ~/.jumpnbump.conf).

The patch:
- converts the keys from #define to int (mainly in every .diff files provided),
- allows to load config file (in keyboard.c),
- the glue is done by keyboard.h which is called in globals.pre,
- provides a default configuration file.

I have only compiled it under Linux, I don't know if he has bad
effects for other environment: I found occurences of KEY_PLx_xxx in
the ./dos directory so I change them too but I didn't test it.

The path is Unix only, so the feature will not work under other other
operating system (however it should compile without any problem). I
will _not_ improve that in the future.

I'm clearly not a C specialist so the code could probably be
improved... However it works well and compile without warnings.


I think an additionnal information should be added in the README file
and/or in the manpage. It's not provided in this patch.
