Incorrect key-to-symbol mapping for Neo keyboard layout?

Hello,

I am using the Neo keyboard layout (QWERTZ variant) on Wayland. Numen 
seems to work perfectly... although there are two caveats: "point" and 
"list" are not correctly configured. "point" outputs "ä", and "list" 
outputs "Ö". I have checked if this is a problem with xkb, and I suppose 
so: `dotool x:period` outputs "ä", too. I have taken a look into the xkb 
definition for `neo_qwertz`, but it doesn't look like there is an 
incorrect mapping there, so I wonder why dotool can't output "."...

Using the "Linux key" for period (ex. `dotool dot`) works, although as 
far I have understood it, Numen can call dotool only with xkb key 
identifiers. I might be wrong though. If so, that could be workaround; 
to replace `period` with `dot` for the "point" phrase.

Did anyone else have a similar issue with more... exotic keyboard layouts?

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

Could you try with dotool built from https://git.sr.ht/~geb/dotool, as
I'm hoping this might have been fixed already with commits since the
latest release.

$ dotool --version
1.4-1-gb5812c001dae

Great! I'll probably make it the next release of dotool in a few days. And
me too :)
