Hello,
I have installed the version lyx-1.1.6fix2 and I encounter the same problems
with dead keys that I had with version 1.1.4.
Handling of dead keys is better but the grave accent is not correct
and the ^ ' " ` obtained with <quote> <space> do not lead to the correct ascii
chars.
I patched the lyxlookup.C file in a quick & dirty way that works perfectly:
149c149,151
< return true;
---
> //return true;
> //jacsib
> return false;
This takes place in function isDeadEvent:
static
bool isDeadEvent(KeySym keysym)
{
// Can this be done safely in any other way?
// This is all the dead keys I know of in X11R6.1
switch (keysym) {
#ifdef XK_dead_grave
case XK_dead_grave:
#endif
(etc...)
//return true;
//jacsib
return false;
default:
return false;
}
}
Therefore lyx never gets the info that there is a dead key going on. I let the
OS handle it, just like on an xterm.
This is the general question with Xwindow: which software layer is handling
the dead keys?
cheers
Jacques
