Package: xvt
Version: 2.1-20
Severity: wishlist
Justification: might be a hard project
$ cat /etc/default/keyboard
XKBMODEL="thinkpad"
XKBLAYOUT="us"
XKBVARIANT="altgr-intl"
XKBOPTIONS="lv3:ralt_switch,terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"
$
When I try to type a word like "étale" in xterm, it works like
this:
altgr+' (no visible effect)
e (e with acute accent appears)
t (t appears)
...
with an accumulated result of ét....
In xvt, the effect is instead:
altgr+' (acute accent « ´ » appears)
e (e appears)
t (t appears)
...
with a result of ´et..., suggesting that dead keys are being
ignored somehow.
Other keybindings are even weirder:
altgr+i (no visible effect)
a (i with accute accent « í » appears)
b (a followed by b appears)
with a result of íab..., suggesting that characters with
high bit set are being interpreted as dead keys.
