+keymap files for Vim
+
+One of these files is loaded when the 'keymap' option is set.
+
+The name of the file consists of these parts:
+
+ {language}[-{layout}][_{encoding}].vim
+
+{language} Name of the language (e.g., "hebrew", "greek")
+
+{layout} Optional: name of the keyboard layout (e.g., "spanish",
+ "russian3"). When omitted the layout of the standard
+ US-english keyboard is assumed.
+
+{encoding} Optional: character encoding for which this keymap works.
+ When omitted the "normal" encoding for the language is
+ assumed.
+ Use the value the 'encoding' option: lower case only, use '-'
+ instead of '_'.
+
+Each file starts with a header, naming the maintainer and the date when it was
+last changed. If you find a problem in a keymap file, check if you have the
+most recent version. If necessary, report a problem to the maintainer.
+
+The format of the keymap lines below "loadkeymap" is explained in the Vim help
+files, see ":help keymap-file-format".
