   @lebout2canap Very good point. I’m not sure what the solution is but I’m sure there is one.

   Could completely custom key maps help? (i.e., if every command was configurable and you could create a completely custom key map for different keyboard layouts?)

     @lebout2canap If no one has raised this issue, it might help to do so on their repository. They’re usually very welcoming of suggestions, even major ones. (Soft-wrap was a major one.)

     @aral @la This is what the Langmap option in Vim is for. Where I have the t in my bepo, there is the j in qwerty, so I can request that a "j" be displayed when I press t. But when I press the dead key ^, the system waits for me to press a second key before sending the information to the software (^+e=ê, ^+^=^, ^+p=^p ), so I can't fully simulate a qwerty keyboard.

     The solution might be to use key-codes instead of key-chars, but that would mean rewriting the entire base layer of the software?
