That's useful if you sometimes use one language & sometimes another, but I simply want to insert Greek words into an otherwise English text, which I can do easily with Gvim, but can't get to work in Kwrite/Kate. I've done some further investigation which is described under the bug above & it seems clear it really is a bug in KDE, ie for compose-key to work you have to be running the full KDE desktop, not eg Fluxbox, which conflicts with KDE's claim to be a "software collection". Any other suggestions wb welcome, but please check the KDE bug first. -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Cities Centre, University of Toronto TRANSIT `-O----------O---' purslowatchassdotutorontodotca
