You can simply produce the keymap with "setxkbmap <options-blah-blah> -print", and piping that to xkbcomp. Use some output options (-xkb, -xkm, -o), and then just carry that file with you, and load it to the server whenever you get there -- it's a complete definition; though, it will probably have some portability issues (when keycodes are not the same as when you produced it). Basically, I cannot see how can you have a portable one-definition-fits-all keymap if such things change (keycodes and layout of the keyboard). > I think I need to concentrate on a solution which is working on the > server side and is independent of the "client operating system" ... I think you can use dead keys for the most common stuff (they're combining characters), and put the remaining symbols you usually use on third and fourth level. If XKB extension is available on most places, this might turn out to be a nice solution for you.
