Title: Esperanto keyboard for Chrome OS

Hi,

Using the iso image (2013-04-20 rather old sorry) from http://chromeos.hexxeh.net/ on recent virtualbox on a Windows7 machine, I installed and tested esperantoxkb, then same for esperantoremap, and observed that keys mapped as expected to the standard Esperanto keyboard layout (http://lingvo.org/klavaro/ubuntu.png). (I also checked setxkbmap epo from the shell, which obviously worked.)

"Layouts" had to be epo to work, whereas "language" is set to eo so that the language indicator appears as EO* (and not EP* because in Esperanto Eo is short for Esperanto but Ep means nothing) (not sure why the *, EO would be better than EO* I think).

I did note that esperantoxkb lagged a second or two after any key presses, but otherwise all ok (incl. capslock and altgr). I also noted that esperantoremap, although more responsive, did not recognise capslocks nor altgr (except altgr-] which was the only altgr to work). I assume these issues are due to my test setup, but please retest on your proper nightly.

Thanks,
Aaron
