RFC czech-translit input method

[Richard Zidlicky <rz@linux-m68k.org>]

Hello,

I have recently submitted this to xemacs-devel and hope some emacs user may 
find it useful as well.

The main motivation was to be able to easilly type czech with eg german keyborads
- on those most of the keys typically used for composing/pre/postfix are only available
shifted or alt-grd. With this input method only the basic character keys are used, 
found inspiration for this in some cyrilic-translit and various iso-postfix packages.

It is available under any kind of GPL license.

;; enter Czech accented keys by combination of ASCII letters.
;; Works well because the used double letter combinations are very rare
;; - with the exception of "ie" which is frequent in words of foreign origin.
;; To deal with foreign words and names it is essential to have toggle-input-method
;; bound to a very convenient key
