I have just discovered that there are gnome compose key sequences for probably all the characters the normal compose key sequences cover. They are listed at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GtkComposeTable.
The trouble has been that it has taken me many many hours to discover this. And even then I still have the task of learning a whole new set of control key combinations. Therefore I think the real bug is that: - the existence of gnome compose key combinations is not signposted at all (let alone clearly signposted) even when you are using Gnome. And even if it was, this would not help you if you were calling gnome applications from within kde. - The method given at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ComposeKey for choosing to use the standard X11 compose key sequences in Gnome doesn't work. - Even if it did work, there is no gui method for selecting it, not within Gnome, nor KDE, nor any other desktop environment. -- Several compose key combinations don't work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/74360 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
