Dear folks, I am running Gnome 3 and want to setup a special keyboard mapping to be able to get special keys/shortcuts see http://sob.apotheon.org/?p=814 for special character discussion.
ñ For students/parents with last names Peña, or Treviño as examples, also for accents like José The command setxkbmap -option compose:ralt does the job and instead of placing it in /etc/rc.d/rc.local or /etc/rc.local or other older solution. If I need to put in ~/.bashrc, ~/.xinitrc will it start and allow me to input the special characters? I have figured it out for (FreeBSD and Slackware[XFCE desktop]) using startx and automatic login using tricks. Have not figured it out for Fedora with gnome-shell or Gnome 3 :( Where will it work? (~/.xinitrc), (~/.bashrc), (~/.config/autostart), using regular startup(level 5 with systemd)? Thanks to the other suggestions I got gkrellm to run at startup using gkrellm.desktop in ~/.config/autostart/, do I need something similar. I want to have this available so my students can compose the special characters and I don't have to type the command everytime :( This way they can type their correspondance to their spanish professors at the community college. They want to use alt+164, but I got advice to use the compose key + ~ => ñ Thanks in Advance, Antonio -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
