Description

```
Could be possible to create a directory (maybe /lib/keylog) where save all
existing keymap file. Moreover keylogs should automatically choose the right
keymap if user doesn't specify another one.

The check could be based on the locale.
```

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing keymap handling and how locale information is exposed on GNU/Linux. The issue suggests organizing keymap files under /lib/keylog and selecting one automatically when the user does not specify a keymap; done means the behavior and supported keymap set are defined and locale-based selection works without overriding explicit choices.
