This is a "visual" (as 'it has a GUI') editor for the kicklayout configuration
file.
It only works for kicklayout files used on the 'non classic' machines: the
Classic kicklayout has a slightly different format (absolute pathnames,
different handling of comments) which is incompatible.

It's mainly intended for developers because anyone else without a good knowledge
of the inner workings of OS4 might well make his/her system unbootable.

USE AT YOUR OWN RISK, NO WARRANTIES WHATSOEVER ARE GRANTED.
IF YOU RENDER YOUR SYSTEM UNUSABLE, OR DO ANY OTHER KIND OF DAMAGE, THE AUTHOR
CANNOT TAKEN LIABLE AT ALL. AND HE WON'T HELP YOU EITHER.
USE ONLY IF YOU REALLY, DEEPLY, UNDERSTAND THE PURPOSE OF THIS PROGRAM AND THE
IMPLICATIONS OF ITS USAGE.

The executable has no icon because there is none, but it works from WB, too.
(Any volunteers for drawing an icon ?)
If launched from the shell, you can specify the name of the kicklayout file you
want to edit (this is usually sys:kickstart/kicklayout).

Important note: when saving, the whole file is re-created, so any previous
comment lines (like those found in the original OS4 installation) will be LOST.

Included in the package: a small user manual and a guide on editing Kicklayout
files.
