15995N/A<para>

15995N/A<command>&cmd;</command> can be used to create families of branching keyboards

15995N/Afrom UTF-8 input files. The format of the input files is as follows:

10139N/A</para>

10139N/A<itemizedlist>

15995N/A<listitem>Lines beginning with '#' are ignored.</listitem>

15995N/A<listitem>The rest of the input file consists of consecutive pairs of lines.

15995N/AThe first line of a pair is typically ignored, but should serve as a UTF-8

15995N/Alabel describing the "primary key" in the next line. The second line of the

15995N/Apair consists of a single UTF-8 character followed by a ':' color delimiter,

10139N/Aand a string of UTF-8 characters to which the initial character may branch.

15995N/A</listitem>

10139N/A</itemizedlist>

15995N/A<para>

15995N/AThe resulting XML file, after processing, defines <filename>.kbd</filename>

10139N/Afiles such that each prefix 'primary key' forms a key on the GOK keyboard

10139N/Awhose label is the "primary key" UTF-8 character, and which branches to a

15995N/Akeyboard consisting of the following UTF-8 characters, one per key.

15995N/A</para>

15995N/A<para>

15995N/A<command>&cmd;</command> is particularly useful in creating branching keyboards

15995N/Afor ideographic languages. For instance, the primary key for a given line may

15995N/Aconsist of the UTF-8 character for a 'radical' such as h&eacute;ng.
