Robin the trick - set the LC_COLLATE variable to en_US or C

I doubt it would work. Sorry, it was not an universal solution :(

 You don't say what OS or window-manager you're using.  I've sometimes
 seen that problem with CDE on Solaris, where the compose key works
 with all X programs except LyX.  The fix here was to put `LANG=en_US'
 in ~/.dtprofile.  You might try a similar approach to indicate to the
 window-manager that you're using a US keyboard.

First of all, tnx for the answer.
I'm using Debian/GNU Linux, with kernel version 2.4.3, LyX version
1.1.5fix2. I'm using as window manager sawfish 0.38 and gnome 1.4.0.2.

I guess that ~/.dtprofile is a conf file of CDE, I've take a look at
gnome and sawfish configurations, but I found none about LANG variable,
I think that them inherit the LANG setting from the LANG environment
variable.

The variable LANG on my system is set as en_US and exported to all apps
(e.g. StarOffice and mutt works well with compose), do I need something
else to obtain compose work under LyX?

TIA,
cheers.

us keyboard + compose + accent problem

2001-06-01 Thread Stefano Zacchiroli


Hi to all and sorry for the disturb, I'm not subscribed to the ML so
please Cc me the answers.
I'm in trouble with compose keys (those keys that permit to hit in
sequence the keys ALTGR + ` + a and obtain à.
This feature works in all of the program I use under X, but does not
work under LyX: if I press the sequence above I obtain `a printed in
the LyX window.
Note that if I set a keyboard layout that have the accents (like the
italian one) all works well and LyX display a à that is correctly
formatted in the postscript document, but I want use the us keyboard!

TIA for the answers,
Cheers.
