[Bug 518056] Re: cedilla appears as accented c (ć instead of ç) when typing 'c

2013-02-21 Thread Mario Frasca
I'm sorry, but what are we talking about? that multi_key apostrophe c 
used to produce the character ć (c with acute)?
to my understanding, this is how it should be, and if you need ç, you follow 
multi_key comma c, as correctly remarked in comment:1 (not so sure why it 
was ignored).

somehow the solution to the here reported bug seems to be the
current situation, as multi_key apostrophe c appears associated
with ç (c with cedilla), while ç can still also be produced with
multi_key comma c.

bug #919899 describes the current problem, that is, we can't easily
produce c with acute in any GTK program now.

currently there seems to be no other way to type ć than Ctrl-Shift-u
1 0 7 space.

hi Leandro,

you write
 as there are no accented Cs in any language that uses US keyboards...
and
 I don't think that any other language uses US keyboards with dead keys...

please don't forget that there are quite a few languages around here in Europe, 
some of them use ć, and when we write to someone from an other country we often 
want to write their names correctly! :)
I am not so sure, but I assume that e.g. Polish or Serbian programmers also use 
the US keyboard. 
to most of them, ç is probably of little use while ć is a very common symbol.

let me understand why you want to alter the US layout when you need Portuguese? 
using the Portuguese layout, isn't it an option for you?

bug #919899 is about the compose key, you are talking about dead keys.
Is it possible that some patches aiming at satisfying #518056 broke
things for #919899?

so you are pushing development towards dead_apostrophe + c producing ç.
I think it's wrong, inconsistent with the rest, but fine, we agree that we 
disagree on this.

problem is that multi_key apostrophe c now also produces ç and
that there is no composition any more giving ć.

please note: multi_key is what one would use when one needs the most
generic tool.

it would be nice if we knew what was changed in order to achieve the
current behaviour, because some of us would like to roll it back.
