------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Apr 23 16:28:49 +0000 2008 ------- ok, points taken... but just partially... About the frustration: I also have to use windows at office, but then I'm lucky I have to write just in Dutch or English, where the accents are rarely needed... the way Compose works is not dependent on the locale settings, as far as I know. admittedly, there are keys I cannot produce with Compose-key1-key2, like some Vietnamese vocals topped by two or three accents, or all Arabic characters. ... Even if I think I understand frustration and the need for a better solution than something which is only available on Linux and is not at all complete, I still think this should be solved somewhere in the operating system, not in each of its client applications. In my opinion, doing so (offering this option in each client of the OS) leads to a configuration nightmare. I don't know if there are any extensions to Windows (nor to Linux) than enable us to configure our keyboards in a more complete way, but if I were a windows user (or if I needed typing Vietnamese), I would look for something like that, I would not ask openoffice to provide me with something which will only work within openoffice and which I would miss in abiword, emacs and vi. until I find such a tool, I would use your macro, very probably. ciaociao. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
