  It is up to the user when and how these commands are executed. For example,
  a layout can be loaded at login for a specific user by putting the command
  in the corresponding .profile file. To load a layout at boot, create a hook
  file in /etc/rc.d containing the command.

  |  $ printf '#!/bin/sh\nloadkmap < /path/to/file\n' > /etc/rc.d/keymap.boot  |
  |                                                                            |
