Ukelele is a Unicode Keyboard Layout Editor for Mac OS X versions 10.2 and later. Beginning with version 10.2 (Jaguar), Mac OS X supports an XML format for keyboard layouts (.keylayout files). These may be installed by copying them to the Keyboard Layouts folder within /Library or ~/Library; then they are enabled via the Input tab of the International module within System Preferences.
However, modifying keyboard layouts—let alone creating entirely new keyboard layouts, such as for a new script—by directly editing the XML text is tedious and error-prone.
Ukelele aims to simplify keyboard layout editing by providing a graphical interface to .keylayout files, where the desired characters can simply be dragged onto keys as needed. (The Character Palette, available in the Input menu if it has been enabled in System Preferences, is a great place to find the characters.)
New in this version:
Keyboards with a Fn key did not show the delete key as a forward delete when the Fn or Num Lock keys were down. This is fixed.
Changed the output so that, if there are no actions, no actions section is in the XML. This may fix an issue introduced by a Security Update for 10.4.11.
