------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sat Jul 8 11:21:32 -0700 2006 ------- Alt-key assignments are useful for much more than typing special characters. They can replace other shortcuts freeing the control key for typing accented characters, which is the easiest key combination to use, as it exists on both sides of the keyboard. Typing codepoints into a dialogue requires more keystrokes and one needs to remember the numbers. This is a very inefficient way to type foreign characters. In Opera I can type āīūḍḷṃṇṭ very easily with the control key. If I need to use Alt for typing or other functions I can — no problem — alt m = m-dash, since control m is already used to type ṃ (m dot below). For a word-processor, the current limit of control and control shift is too limited. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
