So I moved from Windows to Ubuntu. I looked around but couldn't find it. I'd need to add keybindings:

Alt Gr-] woult bind to õ. Shift-Alt Gr-[ to Ü etc.

How would one achieve this monstrosity?

  • Maybe this answer: askubuntu.com/a/423245/16395 can help. Xmodmap should sort of work, bit it is really deprecated by xkb

  • Looks like "for people who have time, there is linux, for the rest of us there is windows" moment for me.

  • It's not so difficult. once you get a shot at it. But yes, a graphical tool for personalizing the keyboard would be welcome --- this is the good and bad of open-source. Someone must do it, for free, or you have to pay for it (at least partially).

This monstrosity is achieved by a tool called Xmodmap. You will need to create a file, called .Xmodmap in your home directory. Search over the net for instructions on how to fill it.
Many xmodmap manuals tell you to run it manually - you don't need to, the file will be applied on relogin automatically.
