I have same troubles over here using a brazilian Debian based Linux distro =
called Kurumin.

My keyboard layout is brazilian ABNT2 and using /View is impossible while n=
o =E9,=E1,=ED,=E0,=F5,=E3, =E2 =C2,=D4 and other characters in Portuguese l=
anguage can be properly typed into text fields.

It is a pit because REBOL is a wonderful language but /View is useless to u=
s brazilian linuxers the way it is today.

I have posted several times this trouble in here and also in AltMe.

Carl is aware of the problem BUT up to now it seems RT is more concerned ab=
out REBOL and Windows plataform than anything else.

It is not a Linux trouble I may assure you but a REBOL core trouble because=
 I use many many other apps on my Linux box and all of them work ok under K=
DE, Gnome, Fluxbox ... whatever.

I have seen you post a solution to type =3DEA character and well I may say =
this is probably the "First Oficcial Try" of our community (including RT te=
am) in solving the question

Cheers

Carlos
