Can't you just pretend to your desktop environment (GNOME, Windows, etc) that you have a French keyboard? At least on Windows it's easy to add keyboard layouts, and keyboard layouts are program-specific, so you can in one open Writer window use a French keyboard layout, and still use the US layout in all your other windows. You might want to write the French key symbols, where different, with some suitable marker on your keyboard if you can't remember them by heart ;) --tml --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
