Re: special characters?
Try put 'keycode 0x42 = Mode_switch' into your .xmodmap file, then run 'xmodmap .xmodmap'. Now when you press Caps Lock simultaneously with another key, you get a special char. This diasbles Caps Loack, by the way. To use a different key, use 'xev' to find a keycode. HTH alex dekker -- |See my website at http://www.linux66.freeserve.co.uk/RTFM/gimp|

I think you just need a font with the special characters. Try looking here and see if they have one: http://fonts.linuxpower.org/ Good luck! -- Jon Winters visit the Obscura Lounge in OpenVerse http://www.openverse.org/
Re: special characters?
You can just copy-paste them in.

special characters?
Well, this being my first message to the list, I wonder how the response time and daily load are, but To the problem - is there any way to type special characters using the text tool (or any other tool/filter/script-fu)? Special characters being those not included in the regular ascii set (such as the n with the ~ over it, a with ' over it, etc.) Any help would be greatly appreciated. == Jonathan Erbe aka Erunantion The Annals of Middle-earth <"http://members.tripod.com/~eruantalon/tolkien.html"> E-mail me at <"mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]"> ==
