Thanks for your so-operation. This is an OS (or more properly a Window manager) function, not OOo which just takes whetever is passed to it. You should probably ask in the Mandriva forums. However, I've found on KDE on a UK keyboard (Kubuntu Dapper & Suse 9.1 onwards), almost all of the languages based on Latin scripts are accessible through the AltGr key + another as a dead key to add diacritics to the following key. For example, (AltGr+=) then c is: รง. Gnome *Ubuntu Dapper) seems to have a more restricted set of diacritics, but the French ones are probably already there. But if you do a lot of French, this may not be good enough for you. -- Andy Pepperdine On this mailing list help is provided by volunteers.
