new page: customs

A new page where I will publish external software that I just modified to fit my needs. The first customization that I want to make public regards the lxpanel and a panel applet that I needed to improve.
The applet is the “Keyboard Layout Switcher” that I renamed to “Keyboard Layouts Handler”. The changes that I applied did not gain any interest from the LXDE developers so if you want to try it out you’ll probably have to download it from here. I hope it will be useful for you as it is for me.
