[patch] some Hurd console keyboard shortcut/layout changes

[Michael Banck]

Hi,

The fowolling two patches change the behaviour of pc-kbd slightly. The
first patch makes left-shift+pgup/pgdown work like
right-shift+pgup/pgdown, i.e. it scrolls the screen up or down by half a
screenful. The second patch might be more controversial, it makes
caps-lock behave like ctrl, as is already the case in the Mach console.


enjoy,

Michael

        * pc-kbd.c (input_loop): Make the left shift and page-up/down
        key combinations scroll the console up or down by half a screenful.
