i'm not sure about open office nor kde (as i don't use both, and if someone can enlighten me of doing it in openoffice), but in gnome you can get the same effect by using CTRL+SHIFT+Hex value For e.g. CTRL+SHIFT+EE will give i with circumflex --- � CTRL+SHIFT+E4 will give a with diaeresis --- � apart from that you can also include a character applet on your gnome panel which lists the most frequently used characters. you just have to left click on one of them and middle click where you wish to paste it. these values correspond to ISO8859-1 character set. to get the hex values you may visit http://www.unicode.org -- \|||/ (o o) --------------------------------ooO-----(_)-Ooo- | vivek | GPG Key: | | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://exain.net/vike | |------------------------------------------------| | Registered Linux User: #305493 | ------------------------------------------------ ( _ ) _| | | |_ (___| |___) ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: ValueWeb: Dedicated Hosting for just $79/mo with 500 GB of bandwidth!
