Only few keyboard language supported

Dear Devteam,

I found that only some keyboard language is supported by applet next to clock.

How I can set it to another language that isn't listed?

^ Do you know the two-letter code for your language?  Open autostart.sh (it should be in the right-click menu) and add that to the line that starts with setxkbmap.
