# Makes the portuguese windows keyboard layout work in osx -
# whatever the key is labeled will be matched to the keystroke, with a caveat:
#
# Windows and apple keyboards have an exclusive key to each - "french quotation marks" key («»)
# is exclusive to windows layouts and the "paragraph / plus minus" key (§±) is exclusive to apple
# layouts. This configuration will make the exclusive windows key behave as apple's.
#
# The configuration is not scoped to a particular keyboard, so to restore the default behavior of
# the laptop keyboard, run this script with -c.
