# xfce4-xkb-plugin-0.7.1

## Introduction to Xfce4 Keyboard Plugin

If your system has a standard (US) keyboard, you probably do not need to install this plugin.

The Xfce4 Keyboard Plugin package contains a very customizable and useful Xfce4 Panel plugin to setup and use multiple (currently up to 4 due to X11 protocol limitation) keyboard layouts and switch between them, individually by application, individually by window, or globally for the desktop and all applications and windows.

This package is known to build and work properly using an LFS-8.4 platform.
