   KeyboardX randomly remaps the keyboard map after n seconds.  
i.e. "KeyboardX 5" randomly remaps the keyboard map for the cli it is run from 
after 5 seconds.  The keyboard map remains screwed up until the KeyboardX
window is closed.  
   (I deduced this from looking at the code, and then proceded to test my
hypothesis by running the program ;)     
   good for a joke maybe ?
