switching keymaps

I frequently have to switch keymaps between english and german.  Is there a way to switch keyboards in xfce4, my prefered DE?

Re: switching keymaps

Hat niemand diese Fragen beantwortet, obwohl es eine einfache Lösung gibt?

I figured out how to switch keyboard maps via the command line:

setxkbmap [locale]

so for a us keyboard this would be:

setxkbmap us

and for German a la Deutschland:

setxkbmap de
