Description

Keyboard layout state can be queried or changed from scripts on XKB-based desktops. This tool helps users and automation switch input groups or inspect the active layout without opening desktop settings.

It affects keyboard input behavior for the current session. Test shortcuts and fallback layout switching before relying on it in startup scripts.
