Different individuals, groups and communities can bring their own expectations to input layout designs. Design is a balance between capabilities and limitations of the input framework versus the expectations of the user community around how they language should work.
I work with multiple operating systems and even more input frameworks. I have my preferred input frameworks. But it ultimately air is a question of knowing your tools. For instance, if you compile a keyborad layout from the commandline with MSKLC you can chain deadkeys, build against custom locales in Vista and Win7, or build against unsupported language codes in Win8+ Andrew On 19/03/2014 9:13 AM, "Tom Gewecke" <t...@bluesky.org> wrote: > > On Mar 18, 2014, at 12:52 PM, Andrew Cunningham wrote: > > I suspect it was a fishing expedition to illustrate how awkward it is to > type on Unicode keyboard layouts versus his system. > > > Interesting question perhaps.
