Add support for Colemak keyboard layout

Posted on Dec 13, 2010 by Massive Elephant

From http://colemak.com/: "Colemak is now the 3rd most popular keyboard layout for touch typing in English, after QWERTY and Dvorak."

As a Dvorak user, I feel for my even-more-marginalized Colemak-using brethren. Adding support for this should hopefully be easy -- is it just a matter of adding an entry to the text file in http://codereview.chromium.org/3195025? If so, I'm happy to do it myself if you're too busy.

It should be easy since Colemak is already supported by the xkeyboard-config package. I'll work on it.
