Script for Keyboard and Time Zone Configuration

This Bash script allows you to easily modify the keyboard language and time zone of your system. Here’s how it works.
What does the script do?

Language Configuration: Allows you to select from multiple languages and keyboard layouts. It uses gettext to display the names of the languages in a translated format.

Time Zone Selection: Displays a list of available time zones using timedatectl, allowing the user to choose the correct one.

Applying Changes: Upon confirming the selection, the script updates:
The keyboard configuration with localectl set-keymap.
The system configuration with localectl set-locale.
The time zone with timedatectl set-timezone.

Notification: At the end, it shows a message confirming that the changes have been applied.

Hi @josejp2424 ,

need to do some updates in order to be more universal

2 icons aren't present for LunarPup at least LOL
3 time zone aren't being grab since you are using a different option

Small update for icons if they aren't present like i try without full instalation

P.S. sorry didn't notice you add it in install pack extra icons

P.S.may i ask you add the option to translate to go to a difrent path ?

hi @AntonioPt
The GUI is more specific to KL distros, as they use systemd.
For Lunarpup, I see it’s a Puppy Linux, which doesn’t use systemd, and that’s why you’re getting an error.
We would need to approach the script differently to make it work for you.
