       aasskkeeyymmaapp is a Wharf applet for AfterStep
       that acts as a frontend to xmodmap and allows you to 
       change keyboard configurations on the fly. As such, it
       lets you use your old and customised xmodmap files as 
       well as provide your own icons to replace the ones it 
       comes with, customising its look.

       Here is a list of the keywords that can  be  used  in  the
       configuration file (~/.askeymaprc).

       XXMMOODDMMAAPPDDIIRR == <path>
              Path to the directory where xmodmap expression
              files are located. Defaults to
              /usr/local/share/askeymap/xmodmap.

       IICCOONNDDIIRR == <path>
              Path to the directory where program icons are
              located. Icons should be named iconxx.xpm, where
              xx is the two letter country code of the keyboard
              map. Defaults to /usr/local/share/askeymap/icons.

       KKEEYYBBOOAARRDD == <country code>
              Country code of the keyboard to use. At least 
              two keymaps must be loaded, and up to as many as
              you wish. The order in which they are listed 
              determines the order in which they will be cycled 
              through.

       Here is an example of how to start aasskkeeyymmaapp from 
       aafftteerrsstteepp and  put it in the Wharf. Place the following
       line in your _w_h_a_r_f file in ~/GNUstep/Library/Afterstep 
       directory:

  *Wharf askeymap - Swallow "askeymap" /usr/local/bin/askeymap &

       WindowMaker users, simply run askeymap with the -w option

       Here is an example of a configuration file.

         #  classic configuration file.
         #  First set the directory for xmodmap files.
         
         XMODMAPDIR = /usr/local/share/askeymaprc/xmodmap
         
         # Next, set the directory where icons can be located
          
         ICONDIR = /usr/local/share/askeymaprc/icons
          
         # Finally, list all the keyboards we want to use. 
         # At least 2, in the order we want them to appear in
