Plan9 br-abnt2 keyboard map

This is a quick post about a new Plan9 keyboard map, supporting the brazilian ABNT2 layout.

In order to use the new keyboard layout, just copy the following file (with a trailing newline!) to /sys/lib/kbmap/br-abnt2:

hget -o /sys/lib/kbmap/br-abnt2 https://gist.githubusercontent.com/mauri870/8ef952b83c44479262460e0330bfa1f1/raw/br-abnt2

Run kbmap(1), the new layout should appear in the list. Since it’s based on the ascii layout, select the ascii first to make sure that this layout loads on top of it.

Also put cat /sys/lib/kbmap/br-abnt2 > /dev/kbmap into your $home/lib/profile under the case 'terminal' to apply the keyboard map at startup.

NOTE: Unfortunatelly I could’t figure out how to make the acentuation work, hence the 0 value in line 1, 4, 9 and 12.

If you have any thoughts in how to improve the configuration, let me know.
