Playing now in Polish mode... ł ę ź ó Are these Polish characters? It seems the way to get them is to use the "Alt-Gr" key. I think out of the box it is supposed to be right Alt, but that has never worked here for some reason. I redefined it in the KDE keyboard setup thingie (on the Xkb Options tab) as Right Alt + Right Ctrl, so, to get ł I type Right Alt+Right Ctrl+w, or for capital, add a shift Ł Tedious. I try to avoid the Alt-Gr thing. If you're forced to use it more often, perhaps you can assign it to caps lock or something less involved. As a silly aside (and feel free to respond privately, if you prefer), can I ask why you use the French layout at all? I use the Spanish layout for both Spanish and French. Spanish has all the right bits for both languages (ç ê etc.), but French doesn't have ñ or ¡ and whatnot, so the Spanish layout seems to be the best bang for the buck. -- Michael McIntyre ---- Silvan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Linux fanatic, and certified Geek; registered Linux user #243621 http://www.geocities.com/Paris/Rue/5407/ http://rosegarden.sourceforge.net/tutorial/
