How does quail use the information about the layout of the keyboard?
All I see in the definition of the input method is a list of
characters and their translations. Why should it matter which
keyboard key produced a character? Assuming that the key that
produces `a' in English should always produce SHIN in Hebrew, why
should it matter what is the number of that key on the keyboard and
what is its location?
