Hi all.
Sorry if I am resurrecting an old ghost. I recall reading somewhere that xorg finally supports (for a few years now), multiple characters iwth a single key stroke, but that requires some files in $USER directory. My question is, is / would such jugaad be accepted by distros? TIA. My issue is, normal distros still do not support the "typewriter" aka Remington keyboard (for Malayalam); and it is not easy to convert middle aged not so high IQ equipped typists into inscript. And scim, which provides a solution, does not seem to work on light on resources window managers. And under KDE, scim misbehaved when I tried it last time, whcih was several years back - specifically while doing a dist-upgrade. (which is quite often, I use Debian testing - even on servers). And sigh; the real reason is, I hate installing extra packages; if I can help it. Having to install xorg-jugad-ml-remington.[deb|rpm] to the long list is - yuck!!!! -- Mahesh T.
