On KDE I've got three keyboard layouts installed- US English, Dvorak,
and Hebrew. I go nuts switching over to US English everytime that I
need to perform a keyboard shortcut. How can I have the keyboard
shortcuts work as if the keyboard is always qwerty? I'd like to
configure it at the X level rather than at the KDE level, but I'd
accept any solution that works. Thanks in advance.
What do you mean by keyboard shortcuts. Can you give an example?
I know for emacs, doing ctrl-x ctrl-s and ctrl-x ctrl-c is really awkword in dvorak, so I've remaped ctrl-x to ctrl-o, ctrl-s to ctrl-e, and ctrl-c to ctrl-u. This way I can save and quit much easier. This is done by placing the following in my .emacs file:
(global-set-key (kbd "C-x C-e") (lookup-key global-map (kbd "C-x C-s")))
(global-set-key (kbd "C-x C-u") (lookup-key global-map (kbd "C-x C-c")))

Type faster. Use Dvorak:
