Etruscan and Old Italic Keyboard Layouts are two variants of keyboard layouts for all those involved in editing Etruscan and Old Italic documents. As fonts Alphabetum and Code 2001 are, as far as I know, the only fonts to include Old Italic characters, and also each makes use of different encodings in the Private Use, the two keylayouts match either font Alphabetum or font Code 2001. The basic set of characters is covered identically by both keylayouts.

As of today (2012), there are other fonts including Old Italic characters: Geneva, New Athena, and Cardo. However, these seem to have been designed for LTR writing, without the RTL design of Alphabetum. I don't know if transcribing everything (RTL or bustrophedic) to LTR is the correct practice or not.
TRL seems to be handled by Nisus Writer Pro and TextEdit as well.
