No, the problem is NOT having a keyboard layout for US keyboards in which typing 'c gives ç.
Using multi-key for anything is not an option if you are a touch typist and the letter you want to type appears very frequently in your language. The multi-key options are irrelevant for this problem. Of course there should some way to type c with acute, but that option should not be 'c for US keyboards, as there are no accented Cs in any language that uses US keyboards. For those languages, which also have many other different characters, the use of specific keyboard layouts cannot be avoided. For characters as the 'c with acute', which are so infrequently used in English as in Portuguese, one could have an easily available character table. I don't think that any other language uses US keyboards with dead keys except Portuguese and Spanish. In Spanish there is no problem, because the only non-English character is the ñ, and there is no ambiguity there. For Portuguese, the only non-English character is the ç, for which the good option is the 'c, as it is a two-strike combination. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gtk+2.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/518056 Title: cedilla appears as accented c (ć instead of ç) when typing 'c To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk+2.0/+bug/518056/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
