xruskb

xruskb: An X localized keyboard switch and autolock. Xrus is a utility for switching the keyboard mode between different layouts. While it is intended for switching between Latin and Russian keyboards (RUS/LAT), xrus can be configured to use any two layouts provided that the proper modmaps have been loaded. Xrus monitors all keyboard and mouse events, and when a particular hot key combination is pressed, it swaps 1,2 and 3,4 columns of the keyboard map. When a a specified time period without keyboard and mouse events passes, it starts a locking program. This package also contains several Cyrillic keyboard mapping tables. From Debian 3.0r0 APT
