This is an update to xvkbdconf which positions xvkbd keyboard at the bottom middle of your screen relative to screen size. This update lets user resize and position the onscreen keyboard with persistence. i.e. position and size will be remembered on reopening.

I compiled gxkb lightweight keyboard switcher and put it into gxkb-0.8.0-x86_64.pet for 64bit Puppies.
I checked it out with Fossapup and Bionicpup. Everything works out of the box in JWM

Find it attached. Cheerz!
