You can verify easily in Configure Desktop > Input Devices. I use the U.S. International layout, as it provides special characters by using the right Alt key. Would making the alt key into a Compose key work as well or better? (I don't have opensuse anymore,but I assume you have the option to make a Compose key.) The Wikipedia article I linked to shows the U.S. International layout. You can do this in Linux & Windows. It includes compose keys, as mentioned elsewhere in that article.

And what is that so far as the setting in /etc/sysconfig and what's under /usr/share/kbd goes? I'm spoilt for choice and even when the files are plain text and there is a description of contents, there's nothing telling what to do with it, how it all links together. I'm sure there's a google reference to something useful but so far all I've read has been on the mechanics of changing and a bit on what chords to strike. -- Courage is resistance of fear, mastery of fear, not absence of fear. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
