I didn't ignored it, I answered you. It's not fantastic, it's garbage
for anyone considering the keyboard is superior to the mouse.

It's not that better than idiot. Improve.

That keyboard is fantastic.

You can repeat it at will, it won't change the fact. You are unable to
understand how stupid it is because you are a mouse lackey pretending to
be a keyboard master. But, as for everything else, you are either lying
or dreaming about your abilities.

Do you really need Greek alphabet to open a new application? I don't and
I see no reason to. The only time I need other characters is in a text
editor when I'm writing. I can need them in my shell but not often. So,
if you configure the mapping at the system level, you block every
similar mapping from other applications and from the WM. If it was the
only possibility, it would be acceptable. But as the required tools (the
text editor and the terminal) already give that possibility it brings
nothing more.

So having a configuration files that breaks everything without bringing
anything new is what I call garbage. I'm not surprised you can't
understand that. As you are a mouse lackey, you can't realize how bad it
is. But it's so obvious I didn't need to look at it more than necessary.

For one thing, it parallels the Latin characters with most of the
Greek alphabet.

So, do it at the text editor level or at the Word level. Don't do it at
the system level. Now, you'll explain it's to difficult to do at your
text editor level or at the Word level. And it's exactly what I'm saying
about the tools you are using: garbage.

For example, to type "alpha" I just press Win+a
because "a" is parallel to "alpha."  It's the same for "beta" || "b"
and so on.  I can also get an upper-case "alpha" with Shift+Win+a
and so on.

So, when I want to open a file with zathura, I press win+z which
wouldn't work anymore because your fucking keyboard would break
everything. When I want to shut down my computer, I press win+shift+e
which wouldn't work anymore because your fucking keyboard would break
everything. And so on. And when do I really want a Greek character in
front of my computer without any application launched? Never. So, it
would break everything for no purpose. When I can do that at my text
editor level for a high value without breaking anything.

So, thanks for helping me to prove you don't understand what you are
doing. You just did it because you found it on Internet and you were
able to copy/paste it without being able to consider the consequences.

As I mentioned, the keyboard needs work.

And as I replied using the good tools doesn't require that work which
breaks everything. And that proves, one more time what I claim about
you: you are only a master of inefficiency. If something more cumbersome
can be done, you'll find out a way to do it.

It's easy, the best way to improve ones ability in Linux is to look at
you. And doing the opposite of your claims would be a good start.

I only use the "Win" key and the "Shift+Win" combination but there are
a lot of other combinations possible.  I can create a LOT of math
symbols.

Which changes nothing: doing it at the system level prevents every other
application to use the shortcuts for other purposes. Which is stupid if
you don't need the Greek letters in the other applications.

But _you_ cannot realize my fantastic keyboard extension because
you are helplessly stuck in that pseudo-modern junk called
Wayland.

Once again, you are changing the story. You are the one stuck in xorg.
I'm not stuck in wayland. I'm using wayland because it's better than
xorg and there are no other alternatives. But if something better than
wayland comes around, I'll be able to switch to it. When you'll be only
able to cry for xorg to stay alive.

I say "fuck Wayland."

Yes, I know. You are stuck in the past because you can't understand

Give me X

I won't. I'll let you use xorg if you want, but I won't help you.

and then get out of the fucking way.

I'm not in your way. It's impossible to be in your way. You are
statically stuck in your asylum unable to go anyway.
