HarM: After some hunting I came to "loadkeys". As a normal user, now I can easily switch the keyboard layout to spanish with "loadkeys es" and back to us-english with "loadkeys us". After some googling and rtfm-ing I don't know what to do to bind/link hotkeys to scripts or aliases in .bashrc. I would love to have something like ctrl-alt-u to switch to us-english and ctrl-alt-e to switch to spanish. Reading about inputrc I got sort of lost. Could you point me in the right direction to achieve this? What I want to do is to switch keyborad layount from within mutt. I feel we are pretty close to the solution. Saludos, Adolfo
