 The A5 layout goal is to make /(){}[] accessible without reaching the number row, it just happens to be missing a lot of extra characters in other places so should cause less conflicts with keyboard shortcuts.

+===== Maybe better to unbind Alt+` and Alt+~ =====
 Because even with Dvorak A5 layout **Alt+s** does not work in Emacs.
+===== And another approach - to not use KDE's keyboard switcher =====
+Unfortunately it does not seem to make much difference, I thought it did at first but it seems I was wrong on that point. But it is quite nice to have the same keyboard configuration even in the console so I may still use this approach. But this means that un-assigning some shortcuts in KDE is still needed.
+dvorak_a5 seems to be working too but there are some errors shown when "update-initramfs -u" is run.
+This configures US dvorak, Swedish dvorak and Swedish layouts \\
+And configures Caps Lock as Ctrl and the switching between layouts is then done with (the original) Left Ctrl button
